If you're selling income property and plan to purchase other income property in its place, one should always consider Internal Revenue Code 1031, also known as a 1031 Exchange or a Starker Exchange. The money from the sale, when invested in the next purchase is free from taxation!

Exchange your rental beach condo for a duplex. Thinking bigger? Exchange it for a triplex or four-unit in Santa Monica, or even an apartment building (known as multi-family) downtown Los Angeles. You can also exchange that condo for commercial investments like hotels (hospitality), NNN (triple-net leases), land, office buildings, and retail.

One must use a Qualified Intermediary (QI) to handle this type of real estate transaction and there are very specific rules to successfully complete a 1031 Tax Exchange. Contact Rhonda DeVictor to sell your income property and help you identify (and then purchase) your replacement property.
