Most investors don’t realize how powerful 1031 exchanges can be… And even fewer know it’s possible to use them in syndications. That’s why I brought Dasha Beardsley, Director of Investor Relations at Lone Star Capital, onto the show. In the past two years, she’s helped raise over $60 million from 1031 exchange investors and just released a book breaking down the exact strategy. But here’s what shocked me… This isn’t just for huge institutions or DST deals. With the right setup, you can roll 1031 money directly into syndicated real estate—potentially deferring massive tax bills and unlocking high-quality deals. In this episode, Dasha reveals: How one casual phone call led to a $2.5M 1031 investor Why most sponsors ignore 1031s (and how that creates an edge) The #1 mistake 1031 investors make—and how to avoid it How to position yourself as the go-to solution for tax-deferred capital What she wishes she’d added to her book… but didn’t Whether you're raising capital or looking to defer taxes, this is one of the most powerful wealth-building tools in real estate.
