For most people, it’s cleaner to use the $500K exclusion, pay tax on the rest, and then look at reinvesting into rentals or other assets that generate new depreciation.Pros of using a DST for your situation:- Potential to defer 100% of the gain above $500K- Diversify into passive investments through the trust- Create a structured income stream- May allow estate planning advantages if structured properlyCons:- You lose direct control of the funds- Ongoing trustee and legal fees ($10K to $15K setup plus annual 1 to 1.5% management)- IRS scrutiny risk, DSTs aren’t directly defined in the Code; they rely on private letter rulings and case law- Complexity: You must close through a third-party trustee before receiving funds- Hard to partially use DST and retain liquidity, usually an all-or-some approach....This post does not create a CPA-client relationship.
