FAQs

Can I convert a replacement property to a primary residence?

Yes, if circumstances change and you decide to convert the use of a property acquired in a 1031 exchange into a principal residence, it can be done. Consult your tax adviser to ensure that the holding requirements of S1031 are met, and that you have otherwise complied with the S1031 safe harbor.

What are the benefits of an exchange?

A property executed exchange permits the taxpayer to defer recognition of the gain on property held in productive use in business, trade or investment, beyond the date the gain was realized.

What is relinquished property?

This is property held for productive use in business, trade or investment which is sold, and the proceeds of the sale are assigned to a QIto hold until the replacement property is acquired.

How long must I hold the replacement property?

The taxpayer must intend to use the replacement property for productive use in business, trade or investment. Most tax advisers urge the property to be held at least one, and sometimes two, years.

What is a qualified intermediary?

Under the IRCa QIis an independent party who facilitates the exchange. The QI cannot be the taxpayer or a disqualified person. Disqualified persons are those who have a relationship: Attorney, CPA, or banker who represented the taxpayer within 2 years prior to closing of relinquished property, other than with respect to representing them on the closing of the relinquished property.
