info_outlineIn recent years, non-traded and perpetual life REITs (REITs that don't have a predetermined termination date, allowing them to operate and reinvest capital continuously without a forced dissolution) have emerged as attractive vehicles for real estate investors, especially within the 721 UPREIT DST structure. While these vehicles offer tax-deferred exchange benefits and diversified exposure to real estate, investors must scrutinize several key financial metrics to avoid hidden pitfalls.
