1031 Tax Exchange on Real Estate Capital Gains Taxes
1031
Exchange is also known as a tax-deferred
exchange, 1031 exchanges refer to section
1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue
Code, which allows investors to defer capital
gains taxes when they exchange qualified
real estate for “like kind” properties.
Basically it is used to stave off settling with Uncle
Sam.
There are numerous options including a
delayed exchange, a simultaneous exchange,
and a construction exchange. A 1031
exchange is not tax-free. It simply
defers the taxes until you realize a cash
gain from the sale of your property outside
of any exchange. Eventually you will have
to pay Uncle Sam.
