1031 Exchanges

Use a 1031 Exchange to Defer your Capital Gains Taxes So Your Investments Can Grow Faster

Defer capital gains taxes when you sell your property then reinvest in "like-kind" property using a 1031 exchange.

Four Types of 1031 Exchanges

• The original: simultaneous exchange. One property is sold and the next is bought at the exact same time.
• Most common: delayed exchange. One property is sold and the replacement property is bought within 180 days.
• Most unusual: reverse exchange. As the name implies, replacement property is bought before the initial property is sold.
• Improvement exchange is structured to use some of your capital to improve the property, build a road, for example.

"At first it seemed overwhelming, but… I learned …I could sell the [property] and … make my retirement better… [It] has been a blessing."
