1031 Exchange, DST, Fund Questions

[Tanner Queen]

I am selling a building, doing a sale-leaseback to keep my operating business in the location under a new lease. I have yet to identify an upleg for a potential 1031 exchange, but what I would really like to do is pull my equity in the building out and reinvest into a large fund. 

What are my options under the DST / TIC rule to transfer equity into the fund, or are there any options at all? I'm not married to the 1031 exchange but I obviously like the idea of not paying capital gains tax on my appreciated value.

Thank you.
