Real Estate Tips
Tax Considerations >New 1031 Exchange Rules

One of the most popular "tax deferring" strategies for real estate owners who are selling one property and acquiring another is the use of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. It is an effective way to defer paying income tax on capital gain generated by the sale of a property when you intend to reinvest the proceeds in a similar, "like-kind" property. Almost any kind of real property is considered "like-kind" with any other real property.

A recently enacted law closes what was considered a loophole in the Section 1031 rules. In some cases, owners of investment real estate have used the 1031 Exchange to swap their investment property for real estate that could be readily converted to an owner-occupied residential property. After the exchange, they made the property into their principal residence, lived in it for a couple of years, then sold it. Now the American Job Creation Act of 2004 has ruled that properties converted from a 1031 exchange property into a residence must be held and used as a principal residence for at least five years to qualify for the tax exemption. Otherwise, the basic tax-deferring benefits of 1031 exchanges remain the same.

Consult your tax advisor for more detailed information.

My wife and I work together as Buyer Agents in the Jacksonville, St Augustine & Orange Park Real Estate Markets... We have been truly blessed to be joined by a wonderful team of Realtors who spend their days assisting buyers and sellers.

To be successful Jacksonville Realtors we all know we must be available when our clients need help so we ALL personally sacrifice to wrap our lives around our client's needs...and this dedication has allowed us to help hundreds of families to find the right place to call "HOME." Click here to see what others have had to say about our team's heart & dedication.

We are experienced in most loan programs & can help make sure you understand the pros/cons of each option so YOU can make informed decisions. For all of you 1st Timers we understand 1st Time Buyer Programs too and they do still exist!!. They generally come with FREE $$ to assist with the down payment & closing costs. There are still a couple of 100% Financing options available such as VA Loans or USDA Loans in parts of St Johns County or Southern Clay County. We are only a text, email or phone call away and would enjoy joining in your home hunting if you would allow us to. :-)
