1031 Exchange

Investor reviewing property documents while planning replacement-property financing

A 1031 exchange is a tax-deferred exchange strategy that may be used when eligible investment real estate is sold and replacement property is acquired. Financing can be one part of the overall plan, but tax treatment, exchange timing, and eligibility require guidance from qualified tax and legal professionals.

How financing fits into a 1031 exchange

Mortgage planning can help an investor evaluate a purchase timeline, available equity, property use, and documentation needed for a replacement-property transaction. NorthStar Funding can discuss financing pathways and coordinate with the professionals you choose; we do not provide tax or legal advice.

Questions to prepare before you begin

  • What property is being sold and what type of replacement property is being considered?
  • How will the purchase be structured and what documentation may be available?
  • Which tax and legal professionals are advising on the exchange?
