One conversation. A complete path forward.

Start with the property you are ready to leave.

Maybe the rent still arrives, but tenants, repairs, leasing, insurance, and capital projects are taking more time than the property deserves. Maybe a sale is already planned and the replacement search has not started. Scottsdale owners come to an exchange from different situations; the first job is to understand what must change after closing.

Talk through the sale

Keep control

Compare another direct property, a net-lease acquisition, or a different market while retaining ownership decisions.

Reduce the landlord role

Review professionally managed and passive replacement paths when tenants, toilets, and trash are driving the sale.

Already under contract

Bring the closing date, ownership details, expected equity, and current team into one urgent exchange review.

Buying before selling

Discuss reverse-exchange timing, financing, title, and independent intermediary needs before the preferred property slips away.

A different ownership experience

Move beyond tenants, toilets, and trash.

A Delaware Statutory Trust may give eligible investors access to professionally managed, institutional-grade real estate without personally handling leasing, repairs, renovations, or late-night tenant calls.

DST interests are private securities. Availability, projected income, fees, leverage, sponsor and property risk, liquidity restrictions, investor eligibility, and suitability vary by offering and require review through appropriately licensed professionals.

Choose around the life you want after closing

Compare replacement paths before the clock narrows the decision.

Direct real estate

Maximum control

Own and direct leasing, improvements, financing, management, and disposition. The tradeoff is continued operational responsibility.

Net-lease property

Lease-driven income

Own the real estate while specified expenses and duties shift to the tenant. Tenant credit, lease language, residual value, and reletting risk matter.

DST interest

No daily landlord role

A sponsor controls the trust and professional management handles operations. Investors trade control and liquidity for a more passive structure.

Through replacement closing

Keep open questions visible across title, inspections, lender requirements, entity documents, funding, and advisor review.

Scottsdale expertise. Property options wherever the next investment makes sense.

Sell in Scottsdale without limiting the replacement search to one neighborhood or one asset type. Compare local opportunities with direct property, net-lease, and passive options across the country.

Questions Scottsdale owners ask

What changes when the replacement property is passive?

Can a DST qualify as replacement property in a 1031 exchange?

Certain properly structured DST interests may be eligible as replacement property. Eligibility depends on the transaction and offering, and tax conclusions should be confirmed with the owner’s CPA or attorney.

Can a DST eliminate day-to-day property management?

The sponsor and professional property manager handle operations, leasing, maintenance, and capital work. Investors do not make daily property decisions, but they also give up direct control.

How much is needed to invest in a DST?

Minimums vary. Some offerings may begin around $100,000, while others require more. Availability, investor eligibility, debt structure, and suitability can affect which options are actually available.

Can direct property and DST interests be used in the same exchange?

An exchange may involve more than one replacement property. The identification rules, exchange value, debt, timing, and closing feasibility need to be considered before mixing ownership types.

What if the Scottsdale property is already under contract?

Call immediately. An independent qualified intermediary generally must be engaged before the relinquished-property closing. A signed contract does not automatically mean the exchange opportunity is lost.

Are DST investments liquid?

Generally no. DST interests are private, long-term investments with transfer restrictions and no assured secondary market. Liquidity, fees, sponsor experience, leverage, property exposure, and offering documents require careful review.
