The Safe Harbor Reverse Exchange
What is a Reverse Exchange?
Exchange Topics
The Build to Suit Exchange
The build-to-suit exchange, also referred to as a construction or improvement exchange, gives the Exchanger the opportunity to use all or part of the exchange funds for construction, renovations or new improvements to the Replacement Property.
Exchanges with Intermediary
In a simultaneous exchange, the old Relinquished Property and the new Replacement Property are transferred concurrently.
Multiple Asset Exchanges
Some business or investment assets, such as a hotel or farm, consist of both real and personal property.
The Exchange Process
Timing is important. Certain actions must be taken in sequence and exchanges must be completed within strict time limits.
Closing Costs and the Tax Deferred Exchange
There is little authority in the Internal Revenue Code or Treasury Regulations as to how to treat the variety of expenses and closing costs which may be associated with the sale or purchase of an exchanged asset.
