A properly structured exchange allows an investor to sell a property, to reinvest the proceeds in a new property and to defer all capital gain taxes In order to access the full potential of these benefits, it is crucial to have a Real Estate Lawyer with a comprehensive knowledge of the exchange process and the IRC.

  • Authorized by section 1031 of the IRS code and offers protection of thereal estate assets.
  • A 1031 exchange permits the investor to reinvest 100% of the equity from the sale of a property, followed by the purchase of a preferred replacement property without recognizing any gain.
  • This type of property sale and reinvestment can either be done through a simultaneous or delayed 1031 exchange.
  • In most cases a 1031 exchange is done as three-party delayed exchange also known as a "Starker Exchange" in which an intermediary ensures a reciprocal transfer of the properties and provides a "safe harbor" against the actual receipt of exchange funds.
  • It is extremely important that this process be done correctly, otherwise, a taxable event may occur.

1031 exchanges provide real estate owners an opportunity to build upon their net worth, while increasing a real estate portfolio.
