Commonly Asked 1031 Questions
Everything you need to know about tax deferral, eligibility, and timelines. For more specific inquiries, we recommend booking a strategy session.
What is a 1031 Exchange?
A 1031 exchange allows an investor to sell a property and reinvest the proceeds into a new 'like-kind' property, deferring all capital gains taxes. It's one of the most powerful wealth-building tools in real estate today.
Who is eligible for a 1031 exchange?
Any real estate held for productive use in a trade or business or for investment purposes is eligible. This includes residential rentals, commercial buildings, and land. It excludes primary residences and properties held for quick resale.
What are the key timelines and deadlines?
The IRS mandates strict deadlines: you have 45 days from the date of sale to identify potential replacement properties in writing, and a total of 180 days from the sale date to complete the purchase of the new property.
What happens if I miss a deadline?
If either the identification or the closing period is missed, the exchange fails and the capital gains tax becomes due immediately. Our workflow is designed to ensure you never miss these critical milestones.
How does your process work?
It starts with a strategy call to confirm your goals. We provide the documentation, hold the exchange funds securely as your Qualified Intermediary, and coordinate with escrow from the first call to the final closing.
