IRC SECTION 1031

« Back to Glossary Index

Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code allows an owner of investment property to exchange property and defer paying federal and state capital gain taxes (15-20%+ applicable state taxes) and taxes on gain from depreciation (25%) and the Obama Care tax (3.8%) when required if they purchase a “like-kind” property following the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Code. This allows investors to use all of their proceeds from their sale to leverage into more valuable real estate, potentially increase cash flow, diversify into other properties, reduce management or consolidate into one property.

Potential for property value loss – All real estate investments have the potential to lose value during the life of the investments;

Illiquidity – Because 1031 exchanges are commonly offered through private placement offerings and are illiquid securities. There is no secondary market for these investments.

Reduction or Elimination of Monthly Cash Flow Distributions – Like any investment in real estate, if a property unexpectedly loses tenants or sustains substantial damage, there is potential for suspension of cash flow distributions;

Impact of fees/expenses – Costs associated with the transaction may impact investors’ returns and may outweigh the tax benefits.
