If you've been a long-term owner of industrial warehouses, retail spaces, or other commercial properties—or if you've recently inherited them as part of a family legacy—you understand the value they've created. But you also know the realities that come with ownership, especially when life shifts toward retirement, health priorities, family time, or simply moving on.

Many owners and heirs reach a point where the responsibilities feel heavier than the rewards. You're not alone, and there's a thoughtful, tax-smart way forward.

Common Pain Points for Long-Term Owners and Heirs

• Ongoing tenant issues, repairs, maintenance, and unexpected capital needs for upgrades, compliance, or keeping the property competitive—draining time, energy, and funds.

• The burden of property management, especially for heirs who may not have experience or interest in being landlords, leading to stress, family dynamics, and decisions they never anticipated.

• Concerns about taxes when selling: potential capital gains (up to 20% federally, depending on income) and depreciation recapture at 25% on depreciated portions—often totaling 30-50% of gains in combined taxes—even if inheritance provided a step-up in basis, any post-inheritance appreciation or continued depreciation can still create exposure.

• The emotional and practical weight of deciding what to do with a family-inherited asset, balancing legacy preservation with the desire for simplicity and financial security.

You've (or your loved one has) built real equity through dedication. Now it's time to protect that value and transition smoothly—without added stress or unnecessary tax hits.
