What is an UPREIT?

An UPREIT is a partnership controlled by a real estate investment trust (REIT), in which partnership units are shares of common stock in the REIT. An UPREIT transaction, therefore, enables commercial real estate owners to transfer ownership of their real estate assets to a more liquid and diversified form, without incurring capital gain tax liability.
