1031 services represent the accommodation of 1031 tax deferred exchanges. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 1031 states “no gain or loss is recognized when property held for productive use in a trade, business or investment is exchanged for property held for productive use in a trade, business or investment.” The 1031 exchange defers the recognized gain or capital gains tax due until the sale of the replacement property. Another 1031 exchange can be initiated as often as needed.

One of the fundamental rules of a 1031 Exchange is that the properties exchanged must be of “like-kind”. Given the importance of this rule, understanding what qualifies as “like-kind” is imperative to using a 1031 Exchange to your advantage. If the transaction qualifies for Section 1031 Exchange treatment though, the capital gains tax obligation can be deferred, potentially saving a substantial amount of money that can then be re-invested.

As a general rule, anytime you sell property, the gain you receive as a result of the sale is subject to capital gains taxes. For example, if you purchased a property five years ago for $100,000 and now wish to sell it for $150,000, you would be subject to paying capital gains taxes on the gain of $50,000. One strategy that allows you to defer capital gains is to enter into a 1031 Exchange. Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code can provide an effective mechanism for deferring the payment of payment of capital gains taxes if the 1031 exchange guidelines are followed.
