1031 Exchange Account FAQs

A 1031 Exchange is a tax-deferred exchange that allows real estate investors to sell a property and reinvest the proceeds into a like-kind property, deferring capital gains taxes. This strategy helps you grow your investments without paying taxes on the gains at the time of the sale.

Anyone who is selling an investment property and plans to reinvest the proceeds into another investment property can qualify for a 1031 Exchange. However, there are specific rules regarding the type of property involved and the timeframes that must be met. Our team at CUTX can help guide you through these requirements.

A variety of properties can qualify for a 1031 Exchange, including residential, commercial, industrial, and even vacant land. The property must be held for investment purposes, not for personal use. If you’re unsure whether your property qualifies, our experts are available to provide personalized guidance.

In a 1031 Exchange, a "like-kind" property refers to any property that is similar in nature or character to the one you are selling. While the properties don't need to be identical, they must be used for investment or business purposes. Our team can help you understand if the properties you’re considering meet the like-kind requirements.

The IRS sets strict timelines for completing a 1031 Exchange:

  • Identification Period: You must identify a replacement property within 45 days of selling your original property.
  • Exchange Period: The replacement property must be purchased within 180 days of the sale. CUTX ensures that you are aware of all deadlines and can assist with the process to make sure everything is completed on time.

If you miss either the identification or exchange deadline, the tax-deferral benefit of the 1031 Exchange will be forfeited, and you will be required to pay capital gains taxes on the sale of your original property. Our team will help you stay on track to avoid missing these critical deadlines.
