A 1031 exchange defers federal and DC income tax on qualifying real property. It does not remove DC or Maryland transfer taxes.

Your questions answered
How does the 45-day identification rule work?
The clock starts the day the relinquished property closes. Document each nominated property, keep copies for the qualified intermediary, and focus on verified like-kind opportunities.
What types of properties qualify as like-kind?
Any real property held for investment in the United States can qualify, provided the replacement property is similar in nature to the relinquished asset. Single tenant retail, industrial, ground leases, and essential service buildings all satisfy the rule when properly documented.
What is boot and how is it handled?
Boot is any value received outside the exchange. We coordinate with your counsel so boot is minimized or reinvested into the replacement asset, preserving the tax deferral.
Are transfer taxes deferred in Washington DC?
DC and Maryland transfer taxes remain payable even when the federal gain is deferred. We disclose the obligations, prepare transfer tax filings, and keep the closing team aligned.
Can I complete a reverse or improvement exchange?
Yes. We shepherd the necessary exchange accommodation titleholder documents and hold title through development or acquisition windows, allowing acquisition or improvement before the relinquished sale closes.
How do I report with Form 8824?
Our team delivers the required exchange detail to your CPA or advisor. We include dates, party names, replacement property assignments, and any boot so the final filing tracks IRS expectations.
