Avoid 1031 Exchange Pitfalls

A 1031 exchange can be a powerful tax-deferral tool — but common missteps can put your transaction at risk. Closing before the exchange is set up, failing to reinvest enough value or debt, or using a disqualified intermediary are just a few examples of errors that can turn a tax-deferred exchange into a taxable sale.

From partnership issues to related-party transactions and reverse exchanges, there are important rules every investor should understand before closing.

👉 Get the full list of pitfalls and how to avoid them.
