The 1031 Exchange Play - Or Glamorous Single Residence - or Buildable Developer
An investor can satisfy a 1031 requirement at $8.5M and subsequently liquidate the air rights (valued at approx. $6.3M) to a neighboring developer. This reduces the net basis in the building to $2.2M, resulting in a staggering 16%+ yield on the residual asset.
