1031 Resources & Information
How do I know if a 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange is right for me?
In order to determine if an exchange is needed, the investor would need to meet with their tax advisor to determine the potential tax consequence. If there are substantial gains most investors will exchange.
Are there special 1031 Exchange rules or regulations in California?
Yes, there is the California Clawback. When you sell an investment piece of real estate in California and exchange into another state you must file informational returns showing you have not sold that Replacement Property each year until you sell or pass away. If you fail to do so, the state of California will assume you sold the property and will want to be paid the taxes owed from the gains of that California property.
What are the benefits of doing a 1031 Exchange?
here are many benefits to a Tax Deferred Exchange. Most of our clients exchange to purchase a superior piece of investment property. Sometimes that would result in an increase in cash flow, a new depreciation schedule, purchasing commercial passive investment property or just changing property type and location. It depends on what the investor values most in investment property.
Where can I do a 1031 Exchange?
You are allowed to purchase Replacement Property anywhere in the United States. Can I buy out of the country? Unfortunately you are only allowed to purchase domestic property, including certain US territories.
Can I improve property I already own using 1031 Exchange funds?
Unfortunately you are only allowed to improve property that you acquire through your exchange. Building on land that you already own does not qualify.
