What is the G(6) Limitation in 1031 Exchanges?

In a 1031 exchange, the intermediary is treated as qualified intermediary of the transaction if the exchange agreement contains the G(6) limitation. The G(6) limitation basically states that the taxpayer conducting the exchange can’t receive, pledge, borrow, or otherwise get the benefits of the 1031 exchange funds.

That exchange agreement is voided the moment that the G(6) limitation ceases to apply. You don’t want to have an agreement and then not follow it. That would be contrary to the requirement that you have to continue to keep a wall up that prevents the taxpayer from receiving any of the 1031 exchange funds. You must adhere to the terms of your original exchange agreement to make the exchange work.
