What is a Tax Deferred Exchange?

1031 exchange also known as tax-deferred exchange represents a simple, strategic method for selling one existing qualifying property and acquiring another qualifying property within a specific time frame. Although the process of selling one property and buying another is identical to any standard sale and purchase scenario, an exchange is different because the entire transaction is memorialized as an exchange and not as a sale. This exchange is different because under this the properties are exchanged and not merely sold or bought, which ultimately allows the taxpayer to qualify for deferred gain treatment. Therefore we can say that sales are taxable, but exchanges are not.

The deferment of taxes is done within Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code where we can find the core essentials necessary for a successful exchange. Additionally, the exchange is always done within the like-kind properties.

What are the benefits of 1031 Exchange?

1031 exchange helps the investor to defer the capital gain taxes. An investor who wants to acquire replacement property after the sale of his existing property should consider an exchange. If the investor does not exchange his property through 1031 exchange then he/she has to necessitate the payment of capital gain taxes in amounts which can exceed 20%-30%, depending on the combined federal and state tax rates. In other words, if the investor purchases the replacement property without the benefit of an exchange, then the power of buying is dramatically reduced and represents only 70%-80% of what it did previously.

Must all exchanges close at the same time?

No, all the exchanges do not close at the same time anymore, but there was a time when all the exchanges have to be closed on a simultaneous basis. Nowadays a significant majority of exchanges are closed as delayed or deferred exchanges.

Does like-kind mean purchasing the same type of property which was sold?

Although the definition of like-kind has often been misinterpreted to mean that the property being acquired must be utilized in the same form as was the property being exchanged. In other words, apartments for apartments, hotels for hotels, farm for farm, etc. However, the true definition is again reflective more of intent than use. Accordingly, there are currently two types of property, which qualify as like-kind:

Property held for investment, and, or Property held for productive use in a trade or business.
