01, Why it matters

Sell appreciated property outright and taxes can claim up to a third of your equity. A properly structured exchange keeps all of it working for you.

When you sell an investment property, federal capital gains, depreciation recapture, net investment income tax, and state taxes add up quickly. We help you defer that tax and reinvest the full proceeds, through compliant 1031 Exchanges and passive solutions like Delaware Statutory Trusts and 721 UPREITs.

The result: you protect capital, simplify ownership, and pursue consistent income, without the burden of being a landlord.

Estimate your exposure

See what a 1031 Exchange could defer.

Most owners are surprised by the size of their tax bill at sale, and by how much of it a properly executed exchange can defer. Run a quick estimate, then let's review your specific situation.

  • Defer federal & state capital gains taxes
  • Avoid 25% depreciation recapture at sale
  • Reinvest 100% of your equity, not what's left

I've been in the real estate industry for over 40 years and have known Andrew for more than four. I first worked with him when he was involved in commercial real estate. I was the listing agent on a six-unit property, and he represented the buyer. From the beginning, I found him to be knowledgeable, professional, and easy to work with. We've stayed in touch over the years, and about three years ago Andrew helped me with my own 1031 exchange. He guided me through the entire process and made what could have been a complicated transaction feel straightforward and manageable. I trust Andrew with my own exchanges, which says a lot, and I feel completely comfortable referring him to my clients as well. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for 1031 exchange or DST services.

1031 Capital Advisors has the solution to tax sheltering your profits from the sales of rental properties. Very few people including my CPA as well as my own EJ financial advisor who is high up in the investment world knew about 1031 Trust Funds. She's considered a top Western Region manager yet knew very little about if anything about 1031 Trust Funds. I highly recommend Andrew for this type of specialty investment vehicles. They also offer other profitable investments that can shelter taxable income especially if you're from a high income tax state such as here in California. Andrew has a finance degree from the University of California, Berkely. He's highly successful & qualified. He often offers luncheon seminars which are informative as well as enjoyable.

Andrew-Kraffert-Gora is very patient, personable, knowledgeable and informative in DST investing. I have been with Andrew for about three years now. He really knows about DST investing. Not everyone is familiar with DST investing, including some CPA's. He is truly an asset to your organization.

Straight, jargon-free answers on exchanges, deadlines, and passive ownership. More in our full FAQ.

Ask Us Directly
What is a 1031 exchange?

A 1031 exchange lets you defer capital gains tax when selling investment property by reinvesting the proceeds into “like-kind” replacement property of equal or greater value, following IRS rules and deadlines.

What are the 45-day and 180-day deadlines?

From your sale's closing, you have 45 calendar days to formally identify replacement property and 180 calendar days to close on it. Both clocks run concurrently and can't be extended for weekends or holidays.

What is a DST, and does it qualify for a 1031?

A Delaware Statutory Trust holds title to institutional real estate; you own a beneficial interest the IRS treats as like-kind property, so it qualifies as 1031 replacement property while being completely passive.

Who can invest in these solutions?

DSTs and private real estate funds are offered to accredited investors, generally a net worth over $1M (excluding your home) or income over $200K ($300K jointly). Not sure? We'll help you determine eligibility.
