The Katalyst 4-Step Strategy
Assess Current Value
Determine your property's current market value and existing equity position to understand what you're working with.
Refinance
Pull out equity tax-free at favorable rates. Up to 60% CLTV is common maximum. This cash is available immediately for any business purpose.
Wait 6-12 Months, Then Sell
Create clean separation between your refinance and eventual property sale to satisfy IRS requirements. Use this time to plan your transition, then list and sell your property.
1031 Into DST
With the profits from your sale of the property, complete your planned 1031 exchange into the DST. The DST maintains your 1031 tax-deferral benefits, and provides the opportunity for passive monthly income without management responsibilities.
