1031 Exchanges

1031 Exchanges

As part of our probate real estate services, we offer 1031 exchanges to help investors defer capital gains tax when selling their rental property. This IRS code allows for the exchange of one investment property for another without immediate tax consequences, but it comes with strict regulations and deadlines.


Our experienced specialists can guide you through the process and ensure that you are compliant with all requirements. For example, if you sell a rental condo in Miami Beach and use the funds to purchase a waterfront townhouse of equal or greater value in Fort Lauderdale within 180 days, you can defer and avoid paying the capital gains taxes resulting from the sale of the condo.


This strategy can be highly rewarding for those who want to reinvest the capital into higher-yielding income-producing real estate or diversify their portfolio without losing money on capital gain taxes.

Definition Of Probate Real Estate


Probate real estate involves properties that belong to a deceased person's estate, which must undergo the legal procedure called probate before being distributed among beneficiaries or transferred to new owners.



This process is crucial for ensuring a smooth and lawful transfer of property ownership while addressing any outstanding debts, taxes, or claims against the estate.


During the probate procedure, an appointed personal representative or executor fulfills various duties such as managing assets and settling financial obligations. They also work with relevant parties like attorneys and real estate agents to sell or distribute properties according to the decedent's last will (or state laws in case there isn't one).


FAQs

Got a question? We’re here to help.

  • What is Probate Real Estate?

    Probate real estate refers to property that is being sold after the owner has passed away, and it must go through a legal process called probate in order for ownership to be transferred.

  • How does the probate process affect selling real estate?

    The probate process can add additional time and complexity to the sale of a property, as court approval is required before any sale can take place. Additionally, an executor or administrator may need to be appointed by the court before they are authorized to sell any assets held in the deceased’s name.

  • Are there any advantages or disadvantages of selling probate real estate?

    One advantage is that the assets likely underwent a considerable amount of appreciation. The disadvantage is the tough emotional distress of distributing the belongings of a beloved relative. 

  • Do I need a special type of agent when buying or selling probate real estate?

    While not required, it may be beneficial for buyers and sellers alike to work with agents who have experience handling transactions involving probate real estate due to their specialized knowledge and understanding of applicable laws and procedures involved in this type of transaction.

  • What is a letter of administration?

    In Florida, a letter of Administration is a legal document issued by a probate judge which identifies a personal representative or executor appointed to perform on behalf of the decedent’s estate.
