What’s the Deal?

A Section 1031 exchange is a legal way to postpone or potentially eliminate taxes due on the sale of qualifying properties.

Here’s what’s in it for you:

  • By deferring the tax, you are in effect, receiving an interest-free loan from the federal government, in the amount you would have paid in taxes.
  • Gains from depreciation recapture are postponed.
  • You can proactively cut your tax burden by reallocating your investment portfolio, acquiring and disposing of properties without paying taxes on any gains.
  • As the value of your investment properties increase, you can repeatedly trade up, enriching your portfolio, all while repeatedly deferring taxes. Upon the death of the property owner deferred tax on capital gains is forgiven and heirs receive a stepped-up basis equivalent to fair market value.
