How a 1031 Exchange Can Help You Build Wealth Through Real Estate

One of the greatest benefits of doing a 1031 exchange of your investment or business real estate is that it allows you to compound your wealth. But how exactly does a 1031 exchange help you build wealth over the long run? In this article, we are going to talk about how a 1031 exchange can help you build your wealth over time through continued real estate investment.

Continuing Your Investment With a 1031 Exchange

The underlying ethos of a 1031 exchange is that it is a continuation of your existing investment. When you sell a piece of investment property, you can either pocket the sales proceeds and pay capital gains taxes, or you can reinvest those proceeds into a replacement property and defer your capital gains tax burden in the process. Not only does a like-kind exchange give you the gift of tax deferral (allowing you to defer a potentially large tax bill upon the sale of your property), it also keeps your hard-earned money working hard for you in a bigger and better replacement property.
