A 1031 exchange is a tax-deferral strategy that allows you to swap business or investment property for another like-kind property. To qualify, you must meet timing, identification, and intermediary requirements.
Qualifying generally requires investment or business property held for productive use, not primary residence. Your holdings must meet like-kind criteria and be planned under IRS rules.
Exchange timelines typically require identification within 45 days and closing within 180 days. Processing can vary by property and intermediary; we help you navigate the schedule.

Common risks include failing to meet timelines, misidentification, and improper documentation. Working with a seasoned team reduces these risks through careful planning.
