Section 1031 Exchange

Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 applies to property held in the productive use of a trade, business or for investment and provides for the deferral of federal and state capital gain and depreciation recapture taxes triggered upon sale if the seller purchases “like-kind” property and meets other conditions. The like-kind property can either be real or personal. Real property must be exchanged for real property while personal property must be exchanged for like-kind or like-class personal property. Livestock is eligible for 1031 consideration if exchanged for an animal of the same sex.
