1031 Exchange
Also known as a tax deferred exchange, the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 provides that no gain or loss will be recognized (taxed) on the exchange of any type of business use or investment property for any other business use or investment property. Buyers and sellers must work with a qualified intermediary who specializes in section 1031 tax deferred exchanges to insure strict compliance with IRS regulations.
