What you need to know about 1031 Like-Kind Exchanges
1031 Like-Kind Exchanges can cause some confusion for many. A recent article in the Summer 2015 issue of the Commercial Connections publication titled, “5 Things to Know About 1031 Like-Kind Exchanges” by Eric Stackley, helps to shed some light on the topic of 1031 Exchanges.
Some of you might be surprised to know that this is not a “new” section of the tax code. In fact, Section 1031 tax deferred real estate, “has been in the tax code since 1924!”

More information and details on this topic can be found in the full article on the REALTOR.org website.
