How a Reverse Exchange Works
While both forward and reverse exchanges have the same end result of tax deferral, reverse 1031 exchanges differ from forward exchanges in the way they’re set up. During the course of a forward exchange, the taxpayer sells their relinquished property, and then identifies and closes on their replacement property within the 45 day and 180 day timeframes. In a reverse exchange, the taxpayer closes on the new replacement property before they sell their old relinquished property.

The reverse exchange can be very helpful if you find a great replacement property before finalizing the sale of your old property. Say you have an apartment complex in Rochester. You aren’t planning on selling it, but you find a new apartment building that’s in better shape and you decide to upgrade. With a reverse 1031 you can close on the acquisition of the new building, and then finish the sale of the old building within the required time frames. But reverse exchanges aren’t just for real estate. Here are a few different types of property that can be reverse 1031 exchanged:
- Real Estate
- Business & Agricultural Equipment
- Artwork
- Gold Coins
- Airplanes
The same like-kind requirements apply to reverse exchanges. You also need to have held the property for investment or business purposes (and not personal use).
