Key timing rules require identifying replacement property within 45 days and completing the exchange within 180 days.
Under IRS Code Section 1031, an exchange allows deferral of gains when the criteria are met, including investment or business use and like-kind property.
Essential steps include selecting a qualified intermediary, identifying like-kind replacement properties, ensuring property use qualifies, and adhering to strict timelines.

A 1031 exchange is a tax deferral strategy that allows you to swap investment properties like-kind while postponing capital gains. Eligibility depends on property use, timing, and proper structuring with an intermediary. If you want to learn whether your situation qualifies, our team can review details and outline next steps.
Qualifying typically requires the property to be held for investment or business purposes and to be exchanged for like-kind real estate. Some restrictions apply, and timelines must be met to maintain deferral.
Processing times vary with complexity and market conditions. Coordinating with a qualified intermediary and other parties helps keep the exchange on track.
Boot refers to cash or non-like-kind property received during the exchange, which can trigger tax on the deferred gains. Proper planning minimizes boot and preserves deferral.
A Qualified Intermediary is typically required to facilitate the exchange by holding proceeds and documenting steps, ensuring you do not receive funds directly.
Property type rules focus on like-kind real estate. Some assets may not qualify, and mixed property types can affect deferral eligibility.
Costs may include closing fees, intermediary fees, and professional services. We help estimate these and plan for them within your timeline.
In some cases, a reverse exchange or other strategies may be possible, but they can be more complex and require careful structuring.
Missing a timeline can disqualify the deferral. If a miss occurs, there may be alternative planning options; consult with a real estate attorney promptly.
