Most of the people have misconceptions about the 1031 Exchange, it is not necessary that you buy and sell property at the same time to get an exchange, but rather you can do that at a later time which is acceptable in this section and is known as “Delayed Exchange” by which you can sell now and buy at a much later time.
Similarly by this 1031 Exchange you can buy and sell multiple properties and all would be counted in the exchange, if the financial gain is none. Most of the law firms tell an easy formula to calculate this exchange and that is when you sell your property, the replacement property must equal or be greater than the VALUE (sale price) and existing DEBT of the property being sold (exchanged), and all of your EQUITY from the property you are selling (exchanging) must go into acquiring the replacement property(s). The only disadvantage in the section 1031 as far as property is concerned when you get a financial gain and for that you have to pay tax.
