721 Exchange UPREIT Due Diligence 101 - Key Points Investors Need to Consider

In 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.

Kay Properties reviews scores of new DST and 721 UPREIT offerings and DST sponsor companies each year. We take our due diligence process very seriously, ensuring that each potential offering is strictly vetted before it is allowed to be posted on our www.kpi1031.com marketplace. Our goal is to provide our clients with thoroughly reviewed investment opportunities, allowing them to make informed decisions when considering Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) and 721 UPREIT investments.  As we consider a DST or 721 UPREIT offering and/or a sponsor firm, we use some very specific items within our due diligence process.
