1033 Guidelines | DST Investments | 1031 Exchange Options - Fortitude Investment Group
IRC §1033 guidelines allow an investor to reinvest proceeds from an involuntary conversion into a like-kind real estate exchange to qualify for full tax-deferred benefits. An exchange is completed most often with a reinvestment of the proceeds of an involuntary eminent domain conversion into 'like-kind' real estate investment. Personal residences and vacation homes that are not utilized primarily as rentals are not “like-kind' to investment real estate and do not qualify for a §1033 exchange.
The §1033 exchange can allow a landowner anywhere from 2 to 3 years from the date of the forced conversion to close on a replacement, like-kind real estate investment to complete the exchange. §1033 does not have any identification requirements, which allows the client to select any number or combination of assets to complete a §1033 exchange. An exchange is considered complete when an actual purchase is completed, and the title is passed to the investor. This must be completed before the exchange deadline expires.
A qualified intermediary (QI) is not needed in a §1033 transaction. The funds can be held by any entity until the close of escrow. Investment losses of the conversion proceeds before the exchange do not alleviate the taxpayer's requirement to complete a §1033 exchange with a value equal to or greater than the forced conversion. Safe-keeping of §1033 funds could make the exchange process run more smoothly. A properly structured exchange may provide the investor the opportunity to retain a portion of his or her conversion proceeds tax-free. The tax code allows leverage in the exchange of §1033 proceeds.
Investors should consult with tax professionals, attorneys, and exchange specialists to determine the best course of action.
