Client Reflection
“We recently sold a multifamily property near the University of Oregon with René’s guidance. From the beginning, she kept us fully informed, navigated every step of due diligence, and brought multiple buyers to the table through her extensive network. What stood out was her transparency and steady communication—she always had both our interests and the buyer’s in mind. The result was a smooth transition and confidence that we made the right move for our future income strategy.”

Case Story: From 24 Units to Stress-Free Income
The Challenge
A Eugene family had owned a 17-unit apartment building for decades. But rising insurance costs, ongoing repairs, and tenant turnover were steadily eroding their NOI. They were ready to retire—but hesitant to lose the income they had come to depend on.
The Process:
We began with a Cash Flow Autopsy™ to pinpoint exactly where the property was underperforming. Then we ran a Hold vs. Exit Pressure Test™ to compare the long-term impact of keeping the property versus selling. The numbers told a clear story: it was time to unlock their equity through a 1031 exchange.
The Solution:
- DST investment, offering fractional ownership and fully managed, passive income
For many owners like Terry, who want to step away from day-to-day management but still rely on consistent income, DSTs are a compelling option. While NNN (Triple Net) properties can offer passive income, they also come with leasing responsibilities, single-tenant risk, and potential vacancies.
In contrast, DSTs provide institutional-grade diversification, professional management, and predictable, hands-off income—the kind of long-term stability most retiring owners are looking for.
The Results:
- No tenant calls or property management stress
- A streamlined estate plan already in place for the next generation
