WHY INVESTMENT EXCHANGES ?
- A 1031 Exchange is one of the most powerful tax strategy available when selling and buying investment real estate property.
- Section 1031 of the tax code allows property owners to defer capital gains taxes on the sale of their real estate held for investment or business purposes and reinvest those proceeds into another investment.
- When contemplating the sale of investment property or when you’ve reached an agreement to sell investment property, contact Investment Counsel Exchange immediately to help answer any questions about initiating a 1031 Exchange.
- An exchange agreement must be entered into prior to the first transaction closing. We will send you a full documentation packet and step by step, detailed instructions.
- A full-service qualified intermediary (QI) is required to prepare the exchange documents and hold the proceeds from the sale in escrow.
- Contact us for a No Cost Consultation at: (813)405-4179 or Robert@InvestmentCounselExchange.com if you have a question, need a referral, or want me to walk you through the process.
