1031 Exchange Rules

If a real estate investor wishes to sell one of their properties and does not want to pay taxes on it, then they will need to follow the 1031 exchange. The real estate 1031 exchange allows the investor to defer the taxes if they purchase another property that is as much in price as the one that they are selling. Naturally, there are some very strict rules concerning this; one being that if you happen to write a blog about the rules or the deadline and the information is not exactly correct, then the 1031 will be invalidated.
