Tired of Being a Landlord? How Joe & Lindsey Found a Better Way to Keep Their Cash Flow Without the Headaches

Owning rental properties sounds like a great way to build wealth—until it isn’t. Just ask Joe and Lindsey.

For years, they enjoyed the steady cash flow from their rental properties in Las Vegas. At first, it seemed like an easy, hands-off investment. But over time, the late-night calls about broken appliances, the unexpected repairs, and the frustration of dealing with tenants who didn’t treat the home like their own started to wear them down.

The Breaking Point: One Repair Too Many

The final straw? A blown water heater that flooded part of the house—right after the tenants had moved out, leaving behind a mess that was more than just wear and tear. Lindsey nearly lost it when she saw the condition of the place. The stove was caked in layers of grease, the bathtub looked like it had never been cleaned, and they had to hire painters because the walls were so stained and scuffed.

“It was disgusting,” Lindsey admitted. “We spent thousands just getting it back to rentable condition. And for what? Another tenant who might do the same thing in a year?”

That’s when they decided: Enough is enough.

They Still Wanted Passive Income—Just Without the Hassle

Joe and Lindsey didn’t want to sell outright because they still loved the idea of passive income. But they were done with dealing with tenants, repairs, and the stress of being landlords.

That’s when we sat down and explored creative real estate solutions—because selling and paying a huge capital gains tax bill wasn’t the right answer either.

Through an introduction from Waylon and Shain, we met with Carmine DiFulvio, CES®, a Certified Exchange Specialist® and VP at Security 1st Exchange. He introduced them to a strategy they had never considered: a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST).

What is a DST and Why Was It the Perfect Solution?

A DST allows property owners to sell their rentals and reinvest the proceeds into institutional-grade real estate, like commercial properties, apartment complexes, or medical offices—without having to manage anything.

• No more tenants, toilets, or trash.
• Still receive monthly passive income.
• Can defer capital gains taxes through a 1031 exchange.
• Truly passive investing with professional management.

After discussing their goals with Carmine, he connected them with Aaron, a financial planner, who helped fine-tune the strategy to ensure they met their financial goals.

A Stress-Free Future with Monthly Income

Joe and Lindsey walked away relieved and excited. Instead of dealing with broken appliances and unreliable tenants, they now have a hassle-free investment that still brings in monthly cash flow—without all the headaches.
