1031 Exchange
A 1031 Exchange enables investors to defer paying capital gains and depreciation recapture taxes upon the close of a sale of real estate investment property by strictly adhering to the 1031 Exchange time limits, title requirements and processing guidelines. Upon a successful 1031 Exchange, the proceeds of the investment property sale can be reinvested into a like-kind or greater value property to defer paying capital gains and depreciation recapture taxes.
To ensure a successful 1031 Exchange transaction, investors typically engage a Qualified Intermediary early in the process to facilitate it. The 1031 Exchange process involves identifying potential replacement properties within 45 days and completing the acquisition within 180 days following the sale of the relinquished property.
