1031 exchanges can involve any like-kind property held for investment or business use – including retail property. In this article, we are going to discuss what you need to know about 1031 exchanges of retail properties.
What Type of Property Can You 1031 Exchange Into?
One of the most important aspects of any 1031 exchange is determining what replacement property you want to exchange into. Many people assume that if they’re selling a retail property they need to acquire a replacement property that’s also retail in nature. That’s not the case! You have a lot more freedom than that when it comes to selecting a replacement property. In fact, you can exchange into any like-kind real estate so long as it’s held for investment or business purposes. That means you can sell a retail property and exchange into an apartment building, a piece of farmland, or a DST. Section 1031 allows you the flexibility to exchange out of and into different real estate markets and industry sectors.
