If you know anything about 1031 exchanges, you’ve probably heard the term “like-kind.” In this article, we are going to share a few tips for making sure your 1031 exchange replacement and relinquished property is like-kind.
The Importance of Like-Kind
The like-kind rule is one of the most important regulations that govern the 1031 exchange of property. There’s a reason 1031 exchanges are often called like-kind exchanges. Basically, section 1031 states that your relinquished property and your replacement property both need to be like-kind in order to qualify for a 1031 exchange.
Consult with a Qualified Intermediary
If you are at all confused about what does and does not constitute like-kind property, contact a qualified intermediary who specializes in like-kind exchanges. Among other things, a qualified intermediary can answer all of your questions regarding like-kind property, and even advise you on what types of property to identify in your exchange.
