Learn how to recognize planning opportunities when clients are considering the sale of appreciated investment real estate. This course explores the fundamentals of Section 1031 exchanges, including critical timing requirements, qualified intermediaries, replacement-property rules, and common pitfalls that can jeopardize tax deferral. Participants will also examine Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) as a potential replacement-property strategy, including their benefits, limitations, risks, and due diligence considerations. Practical case studies will help financial professionals identify when clients may benefit from additional planning before a real estate sale closes.
