There are many excellent reasons to conduct a 1031 exchange of investment real estate, but many taxpayers are unaware of these benefits. In this article, we are going to outline a couple reasons to consider a 1031 exchange in the year 2025.
Defer Your Capital Gains Tax Burden
The biggest benefit of a 1031 exchange is capital gains tax deferral. When you sell a piece of investment real estate in a straight forward sale, you are likely going to be hit with a huge capital gains tax bill. In fact, this is something that prevents many taxpayers from selling their property at all. Section 1031 offers the excellent incentive of tax deferral when you reinvest the net proceeds into a replacement property.
Move to a Different Location
1031 exchange can be conducted between properties in any location within the bounds of the United States. You can exchange out of a property in Minnesota and into a property in Arizona, so long as you meet all the requirements of section 1031. This is a great way to set yourself up for a move to a different location, while deferring a large capital gains tax bill.
