@Rennie Gabriel - food for thought - We refer to the exit strategy of the 4 Ds - Defer, Defer, Defer, and Die!
As long as you hold that property you'll never pay the tax. As long as anytime you sell the property you do another 1031 exchange (into a passive opportunity if it's years down the road, or a vacation rental, or more or less units - whatever) you'll never pay the tax.
And when you die your heirs get it at what is called a "stepped up basis". The tax disappears for them. What a legacy to leave. The only unfortunate part is what has to happen to you first :)
