Five Types Of 1031 Exchange Rules
You might already be familiar with the 1031 exchange rules. Thanks to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 1031, you can exchange proceeds from your investment real estate property sale into a like-kind property, within a certain time frame. Thanks to the exchange, you might be able to avoid a tax hit on the profits.
Tax Reform / 1031 Exchange Update
Part 3 in the Realized series "2017 Tax Reform Impact on Real Estate" Realized is carefully monitoring the discussions in Washington concerning tax reform and receives regular updates from trade group lobbyists.

Fractional 1031 Investment Benefits
Real estate investors contemplating a 1031 exchange must make many decisions regarding their choice of replacement property. Investors must determine the type of property, location of the asset, and whether or not to reinvest into multiple assets. Investors then have to thoroughly evaluate their options and select just a few potential choices -- all within 45 days from selling their investment property!
Pros and Cons of a 1031 Exchange
A 1031 exchange is a tax-deferred exchange of one investment property for another. The IRS permits investors to sell an investment property and defer capital gains, provided they reinvest the proceeds into a replacement property. If you are currently investing in real estate, this probably seems intriguing. In determining if a 1031 exchange is right for you, consider the following pros and cons:
Is a Reverse 1031 Exchange Right For You?
You find a property that you really want to purchase, but you know you have to move quickly to take advantage of the investment opportunity.

7 Things You Need to Know About 1031 Exchanges
Like-kind 1031 exchanges are widely used by real estate investors to create and preserve wealth. In simple terms, §1031 of the US tax code allows you to defer paying capital gains taxes, and what’s called "recapture" on the profits from selling a property, provided they are “exchanged” (i.e., reinvested) into another like-kind property.
What Are Fractional 1031 Replacement Properties?
When we here at Realized use the terms “fractional 1031 properties” or “fractional 1031 investments,” we are NOT referring to timeshares, shared vacation home arrangements or other “fractional interest” properties. For Realized, “fractional 1031 investments” refers to co-ownership in one or more properties by multiple 1031 exchange investors. Two ownership structures have been approved by the IRS for Fractional 1031 Investments, the Delaware Statutory Trusts (DST) and Tenants-in-Common (TIC). Realized coined the term Replacement Property Interests (RPI)™, which has the same meaning.
