Beyond the tax bill: A framework for 1031 exchanges, UPREITs, and what happens next
Many of your clients may be sitting on significantly appreciated investment real estate — and facing a difficult dilemma. They may want to sell, but the prospect of a large tax bill, loss of income, and the complexity of estate planning often keeps them stuck. Knowing how to navigate a 1031 exchange program positions you as a sophisticated planning partner, can strengthen referral networks, and can help you retain high-value assets.
In this session, we will cover how 1031 exchanges and UPREITs work mechanically, the risks and complexities, and the question it naturally raises: where does the capital go next?
Key Takeaways:
- Understand exactly how 1031 Exchanges and UPREIT structures are constructed and how capital moves through them
- Leave with a framework for guiding clients from tax deferral into a thoughtful, potentially durable real estate allocation — not just the next property
- Know the right questions to ask when evaluating a 1031 manager and assessing the quality and risk profile of the underlying real estate

Alternative investments, including investments in real estate investment trusts, 1031 UPREIT programs and Delaware Statutory Trusts, are speculative and involve a high degree of risk, including risk of loss of entire investment. Alternative investments such as those described herein involve complex tax structures and investment strategies, contain restrictions on transfer and are illiquid with no secondary market, and may be subject to high fees and expenses, which will reduce profits. There can be no assurance that any alternative investment program’s objectives will be achieved.
Diversification does not assure performance or protect against loss.
This material does not constitute tax advice. Investors should carefully consider the tax implications of these kinds of transactions. Operating partnerships issue K-1s for tax reporting purposes. Return of capital, depreciation and deductibility of distributions may vary compared to common REIT shares. The tax implications of these kinds of transactions, as well as the structuring required to implement them, are complex. Investors should consult with their tax professionals to understand the tax implications for their specific situations.
This communication includes a brief and general description of Section 721 and Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Transactions structured pursuant to these provisions are complex. All investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the structuring of these transactions and their tax consequences as applicable to their particular circumstances.
Tax rates, along with IRS and Social Security Administration regulations are subject to change at any time, which could materially affect the information provided herein.
