Understanding 1031 Exchanges
Tax Deferral
A 1031 exchange allows you to defer capital gains taxes indefinitely by continuously exchanging properties. This preserves your capital for larger investments.
Strict Timeline
You must identify potential replacement properties within 45 days and close within 180 days of selling your original property. Missing these deadlines disqualifies the exchange.
Equal or Up
To defer all taxes, your replacement property must be equal to or greater in value, with equal or greater debt. Any cash received ("boot") is taxable.
