Commercial 1031 Exchanges
With commercial 1031 exchanges in Atlanta, you can exchange one investment property for another. The way it works is through the sale of your property, where the equity generated is then rolled over into the purchase of another like-kind property.
The benefit of 1031 exchanges is the deferment of your capital gains tax, which allows clients to increase cash flow and build more wealth to better achieve investment goals. As the resulting tax deferral opens up more capital for your new investment, you can then reinvest in a new property of equal or greater value.

It’s important to work with a brokerage firm experienced in this type of transaction because there are various guidelines and requirements you must be aware of. Hassan and Oak & Stone lead Atlanta with our proven best practices for 1031 exchanges.

There is no limit to how often you can use a 1031 exchange. Here is an overview to help you better understand the rules that must be followed within tax-deferred exchanges:
Important Time Frames
There is limited time to move into a different property purchase. The replacement property must be identified within 45 days and the exchange must be concluded, which means the new property must be purchased, within 180 days.
You also must report an exchange to the IRS and file it with your tax return for the year the exchange occurred.
Investment or Business Purposes
Properties must be for investment or business purposes for owners to qualify for a Section 1031 deferral. The replacement property must also be held for investment.
Like-Kind Properties
Properties must be considered like-kind. This does not refer to the quality or grade, but the characteristics of the property. Since the IRS considers real estate to be like-kind, there are many exchangeable real properties available in our extensive inventory of listings.
You have the flexibility to adjust investment strategies to various real estate combinations, and we have the search systems in place across various sectors to capitalize on this.
Equal or Greater Value
To gain the most benefit from a commercial 1031 exchange, the replacement property should be of equal or greater value to the one being sold. If the new value is less than the original property value, it may be taxable.
