For Minnesota Landowners
Defer the tax.
Keep the minnesota land legacy.
Iron Ridge Advisors works with Minnesota ranchers, farmers, and landowner families to defer capital gains on land sales through Delaware Statutory Trusts.
Minnesota Capital Gains Reality
Selling appreciated corn, soybean, and dairy ground land in Minnesota? Here's the tax math.
Combined federal capital gains, depreciation recapture, and Minnesota's state capital gains rate of Up to 9.85% (taxed as ordinary income) can hand 30 to 40% of your sale proceeds to taxes.
Minnesota taxes capital gains as ordinary income at a top rate of 9.85%, one of the higher state rates in the country, and high earners can face an added net investment tax. With federal capital gains, NIIT, and depreciation recapture on top, the combined bite on a long held farm can be steep, which is exactly the kind of gain a 1031 exchange into a DST is built to defer.
A 1031 exchange into a Delaware Statutory Trust defers all of that. Your proceeds roll into a fractional ownership share of professionally managed institutional real estate. The IRS waits. You collect the structured benefits of passive ownership without the tenants, fences, or fuel bills.
