Like-Kind / 1031 Exchanges

Tax Attorney Tax Lawyer

Our tax practice allows us to provide premier guidance with respect to structuring tax-efficient real estate acquisitions and divestitures, such as providing counsel on tax-deferred like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Our real estate attorneys can assist with any type of 1031 exchange, including the following:

  • Delayed 1031 Exchanges – Also known as forward exchanges, this is when property is sold and replacement property is purchased within 180 days after closing. Replacement property must be identified within 45 days of the date that the first property is sold. An unrelated third-party known as the qualified intermediary holds the proceeds from the sale of the relinquished property until the closing of the replacement property.
  • Reverse 1031 Exchanges – An exchange in which the replacement property is purchased and closed on before the relinquished property is sold. The qualified intermediary takes title to the replacement property and holds title until the taxpayer can sell his relinquished property. Subsequent to the closing of the relinquished property (or simultaneous with this closing), the qualified intermediary conveys title to the replacement property to the taxpayer.
  • Simultaneous 1031 Exchanges – An exchange in which the closing of the relinquished property and the replacement property occur on the same day, usually back-to-back. There is no interval of time between the two closings.
  • Improvement 1031 Exchanges  – An improvement exchange allows you to structure a 1031 exchange transaction where you can sell your relinquished property and use the proceeds from the sale of your relinquished property to acquire replacement property.  It also allows you to use some of your sale proceeds to improve the acquired replacement property as part of your 1031 exchange transaction.
