1031 Tax Law Exchange Requirements
1031 Tax Law Exchange Requirement
Four requirements for all
1031 tax law exchanges and
tenant in common exchanges:
One hundred percent of the value of the relinquished income real estate must be reinvested in the like kind income real estate or income real estate at the time of the exchange.
The amount of equity held in the relinquished income real estate must be less than the amount of equity held in the new, replacement income real estate or income real estate.
Third, each real estate investor must use a Qualified Intermediary (QI) to oversee the transaction. A QI is a qualified individual that prepares the paperwork, holds all proceeds from the transaction, and provides any technical advise on the exchange process.
Finally, all 1031 tax law exchanges require the exchange of like kind income real estate for other like kind property. A definition of such may be found in internal revenue code.
