The Industry Leader in 1031 Exchanges
The concept of a 1031 exchange is essentially a strategy to defer capital gains taxes by transferring the equity from the sale of an investment property into the acquisition of another. This approach is often preferred by clients who are aiming to augment their profits or mitigate their management duties. They view a 1031 exchange as an effective means to attain their investment objectives.
Recognized as the frontrunner in the industry, Marcus & Millichap has facilitated more tax-deferred exchanges than any other company. This accomplishment can be attributed to our extensive array of exclusive listings and our ethos of cooperation and knowledge dissemination.
The Basics
Instead of promptly remitting capital gains tax on the sale of a property, also known as the "down leg," many investors choose to postpone this payment. They do so by procuring a new property, termed as the "up leg," with the proceeds. This practice is typically known as a 1031 exchange, named after the section of U.S. tax code that stipulates it. Given the specific rules and timelines pertaining to a 1031 exchange, it is crucial to entrust this process to a seasoned and well-informed specialist.
