How to Put Together a Perfect 1031 Exchange

A successful 1031 exchange requires managing a lot of moving parts that need to be handled appropriately in order to complete a successful exchange. In this article, we are going to offer up some tips and tricks for putting together a perfect 1031 exchange of real estate.

Make Sure Your Property Qualifies

Before you start putting things together and starting the 1031 exchange process, you need to make sure your property qualifies for 1031 treatment.

The Importance of Preserving Section 1031

In recent years, there have been several attempts to cap or get rid of the 1031 exchange. In this article, we are going to talk about recent attempts to cap the 1031 exchange and discuss why it’s important to preserve section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Attempts to Cap Section 1031

In 2021, there were some proposals in Congress to cap the tax-deferral offered by 1031 exchanges at $500,000. This was viewed by many as a very bad idea. Farmers, agricultural real estate owners, and even nature conservancy lobbyists were all opposed to it because 1031 exchanges help move capital around and free up inventory that otherwise wouldn’t get sold. That’s part of what makes it such a valuable tool in the commercial real estate community. Now 1031 exchanges are back on the chopping block with the President’s newest budget proposal.

The Importance of Protecting Section 1031

It's important that we all remain vigilant of any future attempts to cap or remove section 1031 because it’s a wonderful tool that creates jobs, and increases private infrastructure like warehouses, shopping centers, apartment buildings, and more. All of those benefits from section 1031.

A qualified intermediary is integral in any 1031 exchange of investment real estate. But the ultimate success of your 1031 exchange depends on how you interact with your qualified intermediary. In this article, we are going to talk about how to work best with your qualified intermediary in order to ensure a successful 1031 exchange of real estate.

The first pro tip to remember in any 1031 exchange is to start the process as early as possible. That means you should contact your qualified intermediary at the same time (or even before) you sign the sale agreement for your relinquished property. If you wait until the last minute, it makes things all the more difficult to ensure your 1031 exchange is set up for success.

  • Your Address

  • Your Social Security Number or Tax ID Number

  • Contact Information for the Title Closer and/or Escrow Company Facilitating Your Closing
