16 NOV 2021 · This is the 100th year anniversary of the 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange. Investors have been able to sell real estate held for rental, investment, or business use and defer the payment of Federal and most state taxes by reinvesting in other real estate also held for rental, investment, or business use for 100 years.
Retirement account investors have been able to use their Self-Directed IRAs and Individual 401(k) Plans to invest in non-traditional assets, often called “alternative investments” since 1974. This includes real estate and real estate related assets, including various regulated investment options that require the investor to be an “accredited investor.” Real estate related assets can include real estate, promissory notes secured by deeds of trust or mortgages, tax lien certificates, limited partnerships, limited liability companies, and more.
The “Build Back Better Act” (2021) continues to be advanced by the House Committee on Ways & Means, which may have a significant impact on your ability to use 1031 Exchanges, Self-Directed IRAs, and Individual 401(k) Plans.
