For landlords ready to step back from hands-on management, finding a seamless, tax-efficient exit strategy is essential. The traditional options of selling or managing rentals can be time-consuming and costly, especially when facing significant tax burdens. Is there a better way to turn a real estate portfolio into passive income?

According to Ari Rubin, a real estate investment expert, there is indeed a more strategic path. He highlights a powerful yet lesser-known tax tool — the 721 exchange — which allows landlords to transfer their properties into a diversified rental fund, bypassing immediate tax liabilities while securing passive income. This approach offers investors continuous capital appreciation and cash flow without the headaches of day-to-day property management. Ari explains that the value of such a model lies in its ability to maximize wealth preservation for landlords nearing retirement or those who simply want a more streamlined way to manage their assets.
