Swapping land in a 1031 exchange can lead to big payoffs down the line. In this article, we are going to talk about how 1031 exchange land swaps can result in big results over the long-term.
Recapping the Benefits of Land Exchanges
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code offers all taxpayers the opportunity of deferring their capital gains taxes when they sell real estate so long as they meet certain guidelines. First, the exchanged land must be held for investment or business purposes (not for personal use). Second, the exchange must be completed within 180 days and abide by other strict timeframes. These are just a couple of many rules that must be satisfied in a 1031 exchange. When done correctly, the taxpayer doing the exchange is able to avoid a big tax bill on the sale of their property.
Over the long-term, the taxpayer can watch their investment grow in their replacement property. If and when you want to sell that replacement property, you can consider doing another 1031 exchange to keep the investment ball rolling!
