A 1031 exchange is an awesome tool for tax savings and wealth enhancement. In this article, we are going to talk about how to use a 1031 exchange to effectively build long-term wealth.
How a 1031 Exchange Works
A 1031 exchange works by allowing you to defer your capital gains tax burden when you sell a piece of qualifying real estate. What does qualifying mean in the realm of 1031? In essence, a qualifying property is one held for investment purposes or for use in your trade or business.
The Long-Term Wealth Benefits of a 1031 Exchange
The true power of section 1031 is in its ability to build wealth over the long run. 1031 exchanges do not erase your capital gains tax burden, they simply defer it. That being said, you can continue deferring your capital gains taxes with subsequent 1031 exchanges over the course of decades. This allows you to keep your money working for you in continued investments for your entire lifetime.
