Co Owners Who Disagree Are the Most Common Way a 1031 Exchange Fails, Start An Exchange Says
A Start An Exchange release published by The Daily Tribune News argues that conflicting goals among co-owners can derail exchange planning. The consultancy urges owners to discuss whether each party wants sale proceeds or continued tax deferral before entering the sale process.
The piece distinguishes ownership of real estate from ownership of an entity that holds it, and discusses distributing property into tenancy-in-common interests before separate transactions. Such arrangements are often called drop-and-swap transactions. The release's broad claims about common failure causes are the consultancy's assertions; the restructuring discussion should not be read as a guarantee of tax treatment.
