What is 1031 Exchange?

In 1990 the IRS inacted the rules on Deferred Exchanges in Section 1.1031 of the IRS code which details the process of turning a sale and purchase type transaction into an exchange. These rules allowed owners of certain types of like kind real and personal property to sell their property and buy other like-kind property without paying capital gains tax. The like-kind provision is broad, including land, rental and business property--any of which can be exchanged for the other. The like-kind provision for Personal property is more restrictive. This type of property must be in productive use in a business (depreciable property), and can only be exchanged for the same type of property.As an example a business aircraft for a business aircraft (a fixed wing airplane for a helicopter will work), or a commercial truck for a commercial truck, etc.
The rule also required that the "Exchanger" use a safe harbor to hold the proceeds while the exchange was in progress, and spelled out what those safe harbors were.

The only practical safe harbor for most "Exchangers" is a "Qualified Intermediary."
