A question we often receive from real estate investors is, “how long do I have to complete a 1031 Exchange after the sale of a property?” The answer to this question is actually quite simple.

The term "1031 exchange" refers to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. It's not a tax loophole, despite what some people think. Instead, it's a completely legal option that allows you to sell your investment property and avoid capital gains taxes if you reinvest the proceeds in a "like-kind" property or properties within a set amount of time.

One huge mistake people often make with a 1031 Exchange is the failure to hire someone independent to act as an exchange agent.
