Like-kind exchanges

1031 Exchanges for Porterville Property Owners

Both escrows timed to the exchange rules, and the replacement property held to the same math as any purchase.

The Clock Starts When You Close

Section 1031 lets an investor trade business or investment real estate for like-kind property and aim to put off capital gains tax. The idea is simple. The timing is not. Closing on the relinquished property starts two clocks: 45 days to name replacement candidates in writing, 180 days to buy. If your tax return is due before day 180, that deadline can arrive early. A slow escrow does not stop either clock. Real Estate Agent Porterville handles the real estate on both ends. We price and sell what you are giving up. Then we find, analyze and negotiate the replacement, and we run its numbers just as hard as any other investment. A single rental traded for a small retail building. A grove for a leased storefront. Several small properties for one larger one. Your qualified intermediary holds the proceeds. Your tax advisor decides what fits your situation. We give no tax advice and promise no tax result. We keep both escrows on the exchange calendar.

What Exchange Work Covers

Your tax advisor and intermediary own the exchange rules. Our part is the property.

  • Sale side

    The outgoing property priced from comps, marketed and negotiated.

  • Dates mapped

    Identification and closing deadlines laid out before your sale goes under contract.

  • Early search

    Replacement candidates screened while your sale is still in escrow.

  • Replacement underwriting

    Rent, expenses, leases and condition checked on each option.

  • Identification support

    Your candidate list kept organized for the written deadline.

  • Contract timing

    Escrow and contingency periods written to fit the exchange window.

  • Team contact

    Regular updates to everyone involved: escrow, lender, intermediary and tax advisor.

How an Exchange Moves

  1. Plan first

    First we look at what you own and what you want to own. Before the sale closes, you clear the plan with your tax advisor and sign up a qualified intermediary. The rules require it.

  2. Sell and shop at once

    Your property goes to market while we screen replacements. When the 45-day clock starts, you already have a list.

  3. Identify and close

    You identify in writing through your intermediary. We negotiate, track contingencies and close inside the 180 days.
