Two Primary Paths to Tax Deferral

Different structures for different timelines and objectives.

1031 Exchange

Defer capital gains and stay invested in like-kind real estate. Depending on timing and objectives, DSTs or custom strategies may be used as replacement property.

Tax deferral: Defer capital gains and depreciation recapture by reinvesting proceeds

Flexibility: Allocate across one or multiple replacement properties, including DSTs

Simplification option: Move from active management toward passive ownership, where appropriate

721 Exchange (UPREIT)

Transition from individual assets into long-term, passive portfolio ownership. Contribute qualifying real estate or DST interests into a REIT operating partnership in exchange for OP Units.

Continued tax deferral: Defer taxes at contribution into the operating partnership

Diversification: Replace single-asset exposure with a professionally managed multifamily portfolio

Simplified ownership: Reduce day-to-day responsibilities while retaining economic participation

Details, timelines, and considerations are covered in the Exchange Overview.

FROM ONE PROPERTY TO A PORTFOLIO

A More Strategic Way to Exit Active Ownership.

Selling appreciated real estate often forces a difficult tradeoff, taxes can erode proceeds, while holding a single property concentrates risk and management burden. Bonaventure’s tax-deferral solutions help owners preserve equity, defer taxes, and transition into diversified, passive multifamily ownership, allowing them to stay invested while reducing day-to-day involvement.
