How a 1031 Exchange Works

Defer the tax. Keep your equity working.

A 1031 Exchange lets you sell one investment property and reinvest in another while deferring the capital-gains tax — so your full equity keeps compounding instead of shrinking at the closing table.

01
Strategy & Setup

Map your goals, run the numbers, and line up a Qualified Intermediary before you list. You can never take receipt of the proceeds.

Educational information, not tax or legal advice. 1031 exchanges carry strict IRS rules and deadlines — consult your CPA or tax attorney and a qualified intermediary before acting.

Common Questions

Answers before you commit to anything

Yes. Leasing, sales, and 1031 exchanges — plus acquisitions when you're growing. One relationship covers the whole decision, so the advice isn't tilted toward a commission event. If holding is the smart move this year, I'll tell you.
