1031 Tax Deferred 1031 Tax Deferred / see what we offer
Often investors do not realize taxation on a personal residence is far different than tax income or an investment property.

The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 created an exemption for the sale of a personal residence, but if an investor sells other property, they pay capital gain tax. However, property that qualifies under IRC 1031 is handled quite differently.
