Dwight Kay, Founder and CEO of Kay Properties & Investments, Educates Rental Property Owners and Real Estate Investors on the 721 Exchange UPREIT Strategy Utilized by Delaware Statutory Trust and 1031 Exchange Investors

Kay, a leading figure in the DST 1031 Exchange field, was recently selected to present to a group of rental property owners and real estate investors on how investors can utilize the lesser known 721 Exchange UPREIT strategy and the Delaware Statutory Trust for their long-term real estate investment goals.

TORRANCE, Calif., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dwight Kay, Founder and CEO of Kay Properties & Investments, considered by many to be the largest real estate investment firms specializing in Delaware Statutory Trust investments for 1031 exchange investors, recently presented to a group of rental property owners and real estate investors on "The 721 Exchange UPREIT Exit Strategy for Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) 1031 Exchange Investors."

According to Kay, the opportunity to present the 721 Exchange UPREIT strategy to rental property owners and real estate investors was important to him because of the numerous challenges owners are facing in today's environment as well as that his firm is hyper specialized in DST, 1031 exchange and 721 exchange investments as they have completed nearly 10,000 of these investments since Kay Properties was formed.

"Independent real estate investors seem to be taking it from all sides these days. Not only are interest rates, property taxes, and repair/construction costs up significantly from just a few years ago, but also more and more landlord negative legislation in many areas of the country continues to be introduced, making the management of real estate (especially single-family rentals and apartment buildings) more difficult, expensive, and heavily regulated," explained Kay.

Kay explained that as a result, many property owners are wanting to exit the headaches of active property management, and 1031 Exchange their equity into a better situation for themselves and their families. This often takes the place in the form of a 1031 exchange into a DST investment which then potentially has a 721 exchange UPREIT exit strategy. Thousands of investors nationwide have utilized the www.kpi1031.com marketplace to evaluate and participate in 1031 exchange, DST and 721 exchange UPREIT investments.

Kay, who has authored numerous articles for national financial publications and real estate journals on the 721 Exchange UPREIT theme over the past nearly two decades, explained how his firm has truly specialized in the Delaware Statutory Trust, 1031 exchange and 721 exchange strategies for investors that are ready to transition from an active hands on management role of their properties to a more passive managed solution for their holdings.  Investors nationwide continue to look to Kay Properties for help to compare and contrast DST and 721 exchange investments as they evaluate their exit strategy options.

"The 721 Exchange has been around for many years, but very few investors know about it because it's typically relegated to those investors who have very large real estate holdings that attract large Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and institutional investor buyers. But the Delaware Statutory Trust basically solves this dilemma for smaller investors who can use the 721 Exchange UPREIT as an exit strategy for their DST investments by following a relatively straight-forward two-step process which I explained in the webinar presentation, and can be viewed by others on our website," explained Kay. 

According to Kay, the potential benefits to investors using the 721 Exchange UPREIT strategy are significant and include such items as:

• Deferred Capital Gains Tax Advantages
• Greater Diversification through the ability to own many different asset classes in different markets. Diversification does not guarantee profits or protect against losses. *
• Income Potential - Investors potentially will receive income generated through distributions to the holders of the OP Units.
• Liquidity - The ability to convert OP Units of the REIT to shares can provide potential liquidity benefits that are not standard with DST or property ownership. Partial or full liquidity may be achieved, potentially depending on availability determined by the company, by converting the OP Units to shares of the REIT. *Liquidity is not guaranteed and each investor should review the liquidity feature and its limitations in the offerings documents prior to considering an investment.
• Estate Planning - Upon death, shares can be equally split and either held or liquidated by the beneficiaries of the trust. Because these shares are passed through a trust, the beneficiaries receive a step-up basis and can avoid capital gains taxes and depreciation recapture. * Again, liquidity is never guaranteed and investors are encouraged to review offering documents prior to investing.

Kay, who authored what is considered by many to be the first book on Delaware Statutory Trust Properties for 1031 Exchange investors, presented the 721 Exchange UPREIT strategy to a group of rental property owners and real estate investors from across the country in this presentation that was widely appreciated and considered to be highly informative by many of the attendees.
