        1031 Exchange DST

        What is a Springing LLC?

        By Paul Getty06, Oct 2022

        When the IRS created rules allowing the Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) ownership structure to be used as an acceptable “like-kind” 1031 exchange investment option, they mandated that the sponsor of the DST could not refinance the property or request additional funds from investors during the holding period. DST sponsors were also prohibited from negotiating new leases. 

        If unforeseen circumstances occur that would require additional funds, e.g., loss of a major tenant, DST sponsors were provided with an option to convert the DST structure into a Limited Liability Company structure termed a “Springing LLC.” This LLC structure allows DST sponsors added flexibility to raise additional funds, renegotiate current loans terms, obtain new loans, or enter into new leases. 

        Consequences of a Springing LLC

        The Springing LLC acts as a safety net to provide an additional tool to a DST sponsor to protect investor interests and help avoid a negative outcome. However, when a property is converted from a DST to an LLC structure, investors generally no longer have an option to complete a 1031 exchange unless all the investors in the Springing LLC invest in a new 1031 replacement property. Since this option can be difficult to accomplish, DST sponsors strive to convert the Springing LLC structure back into a DST structure as soon as practical. 

        The Springing LLC not only provides additional options to protect investor interests that are not permitted under the DST structure, but it also provides added security to lenders and can reduce risks of a loan default or foreclosure. 

        It is important to note that since the creation of the 1031 DST structure in 2004, the Springing LLC option has rarely been used. During our firm’s history dating back to 2003, we have only been aware of several situations that required converting a DST into a Springing LLC. However, the existence of this option is analogous to having an insurance policy that is only needed in the event of an unforeseen emergency.  

        To learn more about DSTs and the 1031 exchange process and how it may work with your portfolio, please contact us to schedule a consultation.

        1031 Risk Disclosure:

        • There is no guarantee that any strategy will be successful or achieve investment objectives;
        • Potential for property value loss – All real estate investments have the potential to lose value during the life of the investments;
        • Change of tax status – The income stream and depreciation schedule for any investment property may affect the property owner’s income bracket and/or tax status. An unfavorable tax ruling may cancel deferral of capital gains and result in immediate tax liabilities;
        • Potential for foreclosure – All financed real estate investments have potential for foreclosure; ·Illiquidity – Because 1031 exchanges are commonly offered through private placement offerings and are illiquid securities. There is no secondary market for these investments;
        • Reduction or Elimination of Monthly Cash Flow Distributions – Like any investment in real estate, if a property unexpectedly loses tenants or sustains substantial damage, there is potential for suspension of cash flow distributions;
        • Impact of fees/expenses – Costs associated with the transaction may impact investors’ returns and may outweigh the tax benefits

        No offer to buy or sell securities is being made. Such offers may only be made to qualified accredited investors via private placement memorandum. Risks detailed in a private placement memorandum should be carefully reviewed, understood and considered before making such an investment. Prospective strategies and products used in any tax advantaged investment planning should be reviewed independently with your tax and legal advisors. Changes to the tax code and other regulatory revisions could have a negative impact upon strategies developed and recommendations made. Past performance and/or forward looking statements are never an assurance of future results.

        Many of the investments offered will be only available to those investors meeting the definition of an Accredited Investor under SEC Rule 501(A) and offered as Regulation D private placement securities via a Private Placement Memorandum (“PPM”). Prospective investors must receive, read and understand all of the risks associated with buying private placement securities. Investments are not guaranteed or FDIC insured and risks may include but are not limited to illiquidity, no guarantee of income or guarantee that all tax advantages or objectives will be met and complete loss of principal investment could occur.

        Risk Disclosure: Alternative investment products, including real estate investments, notes & debentures, hedge funds and private equity, involve a high degree of risk, often engage in leveraging and other speculative investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss, can be highly illiquid, are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors, may involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing important tax information, are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as mutual funds, often charge high fees which may offset any trading profits, and in many cases the underlying investments are not transparent and are known only to the investment manager. Alternative investment performance can be volatile. An investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his or her investment. Often, alternative investment fund and account managers have total trading authority over their funds or accounts; the use of a single advisor applying generally similar trading programs could mean lack of diversification and, consequently, higher risk. There is often no secondary market for an investor's interest in alternative investments, and none is expected to develop. There may be restrictions on transferring interests in any alternative investment. Alternative investment products often execute a substantial portion of their trades on non-U.S. exchanges. Investing in foreign markets may entail risks that differ from those associated with investments in U.S. markets. Additionally, alternative investments often entail commodity trading, which involves substantial risk of loss.
