Investment Properties
When considering Capital Gains Taxes for investment properties, Executing a 1031 exchange may enable you to defer some all of the capital gains taxes associated with the sale of a relinquished property.
A 1031 Exchange allows investors to sell one or more investment properties and buy one or more “like-kind” properties that better meet their investing objectives. Understanding the opportunities a 1031 exchange presents and the strict rules around executing an exchange are keys to avoiding an unexpected tax bill.
