1031 Exchange Investment Timeline and Tax Implications
For investors intent on benefitting from the substantial advantages available through strategic employment of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, timing is critical. The foundation of the 1031 exchange is the concept that when an investor uses the proceeds of a property sale to purchase another property, the investor is, in effect, continuing the investment. Because the taxpayer is reinvesting all the profits, the IRS doesn't require payment of taxes on cash the taxpayer didn't receive. The investor should be aware that the tax is deferred, not eradicated. That means that if the taxpayer later sells a property without exchanging it for another qualified “like-kind” investment as a replacement, they will owe taxes on the accumulated gains.
