1031 Exchange Resources

Helping Investors Preserve Wealth and Build Long-Term Real Estate Portfolios

A 1031 exchange can be one of the most powerful tools available to real estate investors.

By allowing investors to defer certain capital gains taxes when exchanging one investment property for another qualifying property, a properly executed 1031 exchange can help preserve equity, increase purchasing power, and support long-term portfolio growth.

Whether you are selling a rental property, multifamily asset, commercial building, land, or investment property, understanding the 1031 exchange process is critical.

At the Kirsch Team, we work with investors throughout Northern Nevada and coordinate closely with qualified intermediaries, CPAs, attorneys, lenders, and property managers to help ensure a smooth transaction.

This information is provided for educational purposes only. Always consult your CPA, attorney, and qualified intermediary regarding your specific situation.

What Is a 1031 Exchange?

A 1031 exchange, named after Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, allows investors to defer certain capital gains taxes by exchanging one investment property for another qualifying investment property.

Instead of immediately recognizing taxable gain upon the sale of an investment property, investors may be able to reinvest proceeds into another qualifying property and continue building wealth through real estate.

Common exchange scenarios include:

  • Single-family rental to multifamily property
  • Multifamily property to larger apartment complex
  • Land to income-producing property
  • Commercial property to commercial property
  • Multiple properties consolidated into one asset
  • One property exchanged into multiple replacement properties
