Second homes can be personal or investment property, and sometimes there is a fine line between the two.

Meeting this requirement can be challenging, but the reward is the ability to reinvest the entire proceeds from the sale while delaying the need to pay the capital gains taxes.

Taking advantage of a 1031 Exchange, while involving many steps, is usually straightforward enough for a single property owner.
