As a general rule, when a taxpayer sells real property and realizes a gain on the property, the taxpayer is required to pay capital gains taxes on the gain realized. Although the rate at which capital gains are taxed fluctuates, it is typically enough to warrant looking for legal mechanisms to avoid the obligation. One mechanism used by many taxpayers is a Section 1031 Exchange. Named after the IRS section from which it stems, a Section 1031 contemplates an “exchange” of property instead of an outright sale.
