Are you planning on selling your Miami property and investing in another similar property next? If you are, then you can save yourself a significant amount of money by doing a 1031 exchange. In a 1031 exchange, also called a
tax-deferred exchange, you can have the capital-gains tax you accrue when you sell your property deferred. As a
Miami 1031 Exchange Expert, I have helped numerous clients successfully save on taxes and I am more than happy now to give you an introduction to this money-saving process.
Do You Qualify for a Miami 1031 Exchange?
The first thing that needs to be determined before one embarks on a tax-deferred exchange is whether or not your transaction qualifies for it. As any
Miami 1031 Exchange Expert will tell you, this will depend on whether or not your property has been held for productive use, whether for investment purposes or for a trade or business. If you are selling this property and then buying another one that is of “like-kind,” then you can indeed qualify for a
Miami 1031 exchange.
When it comes to real estate, “like-kind” is defined flexibly, giving you a great deal of leeway. The property you will purchase can be anything as long as it is, like the property being sold, to be held for productive use for investment or in a trade or business. It must also be equal to or greater in value than the property you are selling.
