Information on a 1031 real estate exchange?
89935
Liz,\n1031 exchanges is a method for deferring capital gains taxes on the sale of an investment property by reinvesting the proceeds into another investment property.\n\nThe steps are rather simple, but you will need to involve a few professionals.\n1. Identify intent (acknowledge in your contract of sale of first property that you may want to do a 1031 exchange)\n2. Close on sale - clock starts - Proceed are held by 3rd party (1031 exchange intermediary/usually title co) the proceeds from the sale are NEVER in your possession.\n3. by 45 days from sale - identify new property\n4. by 180 days from sale - reinvest proceeds from sale into new property\n\nI'm testing a new 1031 exchange site.  Below is the link for more information.\n\nGood luck,\nChris

First pointer: Avoid the scam listed above.\nIts listed here also: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=1006012204009&r=w\n\nIf you are looking to start investing in the real estate market, be very cautious.  Many hot locations are expected to see a cool off in the next two years.

Your pretty much correct.\n\nHere is a link to my 1031 exchange site that I'm creating:\nhttp://www.nnnstore.com soon to be http://www.1031store.com\n\nYou will find good general information about 1031 exchanges, especially on the first page.\n\nHere is a link to my capital gains calculator:\nhttp://www.nnnstore.com/1031_capital_gains_calculator.php soon to be:\nhttp://www.1031store.com/1031_capital_gains_calculator.php\n\nThis will help you figure out your total capital gain due.  NH is a no capital gains state.  I calculate that you will owe $15,300 in capital gains taxes.\n\nThis figure could change if you depreciated the property or add in capital improvements.\n\nTo defer all capital gains taxes, 1031 exchanges are the way to go.  You will need to replace all debt & equity of your sale by purchasing another investment property.\n\nYou may do a partial 1031 exchange, reinvesting some of the proceeds and taking the gain on the rest(known as 'boot').\n\nA good title company should be able to help explain 1031 exchanges further, and also act as your accomodator for the exchange.

There are no real estate investment websites that I know of...  Realtors can't and don't sell investments, they can only sell you real estate that you may use as an investment.   In order for a Realtor to be able to sell real estate as an investment they would have to get properly licensed through the SEC, don't know many who are.\n\nI would recommend choosing an area and looking at properties for sale on the web in that town...\n\nRegards,\nJoe Ballarino\nhttp://www.AmerivestRealty.com

I believe that the capital gains tax rate for Illinois is a flat 3% for both short and long-term capital gains (1 year and above).\n\nThere are two different types of exchanges that generally apply:\n1. Primary residence - section 121\n2. Investment property - 1031 exchange\n\nIf this is your primary residence, and you have lived there for 2 years, you may make up to 250K, or 500K married without having to pay a gain.\n\nAbove that amount, you have a 2 year time frame in which to invest into another primary residence.\n\nIf the property you are referring to was used as an investment(u didn't live in it) the other option is a 1031 exchange.\n\nBasically, from the time of sale of the first asset, you have 180 days in which to close and reinvest the proceeds into other investment real estate.\n\nThere are some finer points, but a 1031 exchange is a pretty common tool for investors wishing to avoid paying capital gains tax and reinvest the proceeds into another property.\n\nFor more information, feel free to visit my site: http://www.1031store.com - I'll be releasing in this coming week.\n\nYou will be able to find professionals to connect with to here:\nhttp://www.1031store.com/experts/1031_exchange_experts.php\n\nIf you have any questions about your capital gain, I have a capital gains calculator that is pretty easy to use to:\nhttp://www.1031store.com/resources/1031_capital_gains_calculator.php\n\nHope this is a step in the right direction...

Although C Brent is essentially correct about 1031 exchanges... I don't think that he answers your question.\n\nA 1031 exchange is a tax deferred exchange.  This means that when you remove your invested capital from real estate... it will be taxed at your capital gains rate (state, fed & recaptured depreciation).\n\nHere is a link to the capital gains calculator on my site:\nhttp://www.1031store.com/resources/1031_capital_gains_calculator.php\n\nIf on the short term side, you decide to take a little cash out (or portion) of your 1031 exchange proceeds, you will be taxed at your capital gains rate on the portion that you decide to not opt into the exchange.  This is called Boot. (like putting cash in your boot).\nHere is a link to the dictionary on my site:\nhttp://www.1031store.com/resources/dictionary.php\n\nWhen speaking about real estate capital gains,  there are some very good long term effects:\n1. (has to be mentioned) you will be realize compounded growth on your deferred capital gain tax.\n\n2. One of the most over looked advantages, is to move capital from a state where the capital gains tax rate is to another state where the capital gains rate is lower.\n\nLT capital gains rates range from 0% - 12% in different states.  A good example is for an owner who sells property in california (believe 9.3% rate) and buys through a 1031 exchange in TX (0% rate).\n\nThis is where it gets interesting.  Even if you sell the TX property after a year, and realize your gain... you do not owe Cali state tax.  That is tax money saved.\n\nSo in the long run... there can be some real advantages.\n\nI'm going to release this site next week.  You'll be able to contact with experts nationwide and find NNN property to purchase.  Feel free to check it out.  By July 1st, you should be able to contact with some experts too.\nhttp://www.1031store.com

Your best bet is to get the information directly from the folks that do this for a living. Try looking at this site:\nAmerican Moving and Storage Association: http://www.moving.org/ \nYou should be able to find information they provide to the public relating to your question.\nIf you wish to conduct a more detailed free research on your inquiry you should go to our educational real estate research page http://www.realestateformnm.com/ResearchLink.html there you will find more links for real estate related research than any other site.

I wish I could give you the specific information, but this will at least get you in the right direction.\n\nGo to your county's website and find where you can search the tax assessor records. You should be able to input the property address and find out the owner.\n\nThen, on the same county website, go to where you can search the public records. Enter the name of the owner and you will see all recorded documents. You may be able to find what you need there.\n\nHOWEVER, if you want to know everything, go to a title company and ask them to do a "preliminary title search" on the property. That will give you what you need. Tell them you hope to buy the house and if you do, you will use them for the transaction. They will likely do the title search for free or for a minimal fee.\n\nI hope this helps. I am from Seattle and this is how we do it there.

Call a real estate agent in the area.  They can do a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) which should give you a pretty decent idea of property values there.
