In a 1031 exchange, sometimes there are situations in which you have some oddball expenses on the settlement statement that nobody knows how to deal with. It may require reading the loan documents or the item that creates the obligation to pay it. Prepayment penalties on loans and mortgages are ideally going to be treated as additional debt owed to the lender (that can be offset with new debt taken out in conjunction with the replacement property). But you may need to read your loan documents to know if that’s a justifiable position. Worst case scenario, if you pay it out of 1031 exchange funds, it could be considered boot.
