Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers for Colorado investors completing a 1031 exchange.

What are the 45 and 180 day deadlines?01
The IRS allows 45 calendar days from the sale closing to identify potential replacement properties and 180 calendar days from the sale closing to complete the acquisition of selected replacements. Missing either deadline disqualifies the exchange.
Which properties qualify as like-kind?02
Like-kind real property covers investment or business real estate held within the United States, including land, improved assets, and long-term leaseholds. Personal property and inventory do not qualify.
What is boot and how is it taxed?03
Boot refers to cash or non-like-kind property received in an exchange. Boot is recognized as taxable income to the extent of gain realized, including mortgage relief not replaced.
Do I owe transfer taxes in Colorado?04
Colorado does not impose a state-level transfer tax, but counties and municipalities may assess documentary or recording fees that remain payable even within a 1031 exchange.
Can I complete a reverse exchange?05
Yes. A reverse exchange requires parking arrangements and a qualified exchange accommodation agreement that complies with IRS Revenue Procedure 2000-37 timelines.
How do I report using IRS Form 8824?06
Form 8824 reports relinquished and replacement property details, timelines, basis calculations, and any recognized gain. Most investors file it with their federal return for the tax year in which the exchange closes.
