  • Reverse 1031 Exchange: Considerations in Financing the Purchase of Replacement Property

    In a hot market or market’s with limited inventory, the 45-day identification rules under a 1031 tax deferred exchange can feel like too small a window. (To read more about 1031 exchange process and rules, visit our https://www.accruit.com/property-owners/1031-exchange-explained”>https://www.accruit.com/blog/1031-like-kind-exchanges-myths-vs-realitie… exchange rules provide for the ‘Reverse 1031 Exchange’ to exist. Under the Treasury Regulations, exchanges must be completed in the proper sequence. This means the sale of the relinquished property must take place before the acquisition of the new or replacement property. However, on occasion, the facts are such that a taxpayer wishes to acquire the new property before the sale or risk losing the desired new property. This reverse sequence, also approved by the IRS, is often referred to as a “https://www.accruit.com/blog/primer-1031-exchanges-and-related-types-ex… 1031 exchange.” The reverse exchange technique essentially consists of an exchange accommodator holding or “parking” title to the new property on behalf of the taxpayer to avoid the taxpayer having simultaneous ownership of two properties. Immediately after the sale of the old property (but no later than 180 days) the exchange accommodator transfers the new property to the taxpayer. This ‘technically’ creates the proper sequence. Financing the Purchase of the Replacement Property
    The concept of a Reverse 1031 exchange can sound attractive to many investors until the reality of financing the purchase of the replacement property is considered.  For investors with the means to purchase the property outright in cash or those with strong lending relationships this can be relatively straightforward, however, for others they must ensure they take some nuances into consideration such as:

    The title to the replacement property will be parked with an entity created by the Qualified Intermediary for the sole purpose of holding title to the property.  The loan cannot be in the name of the taxpayer, but instead must be in the name of the parking entity.  This requires a short-term bridge loan that can be refinanced into a longer-term loan or paid down once the old property is sold and new property is transferred into the name of the taxpayer.  Many banks will not entertain these loans as they do not fit into their traditional lending model.  It may take some time discussing with several local or regional banks to get them to understand the structure. 
    Ensure you have sufficient collateral and equity.  Banks will underwrite the replacement property as well as look at the taxpayers overall financial position to ensure adequate coverage.  Traditionally, banks are willing to lend between 65-75% of the replacement property’s value to qualified buyers depending on the type of property and quality of collateral.
    Think about financing well in advance of pursuing a purchase through a reverse 1031 exchange.  Banks take time to order appraisals and underwrite collateral for specialty bridge financing.  This can be several weeks.  If you are in a rush and can’t wait for a bank, there are lenders willing to provide these types of loans, but you are going to pay handsomely for it in rate and upfront fees

    Financing a reverse  exchange can be more difficult than a traditional loan, but it is common place for 1031s.  Take the time and do the research by speaking with several banks and the right Qualified Intermediary –

  • Stop the Rhetoric – Understanding the Social Impact of 1031 Exchanges on America

    When President Biden released his American Family Plan last week, under which Internal Revenue Code 1031 exchange real estate investors are choosing more and more to invest in social impact projects benefiting neighborhoods, communities, and our country. In recent years, up to 70% of targeted project funding needs were benefited by 1031 exchange proceeds. These included a Special Needs School in Minnesota in 2019, a Goodwill Store in Florida last year, and a Fertility Clinic in Illinois this year. Other examples include numerous Dollar General thrift stores, DaVita Kidney Care centers, CVS Pharmacies, Fresenius Medical Care dialysis centers, and Walmart’s. Since these projects are larger investment opportunities overall, aggregating multiple real estate investors’ exchange proceeds is necessary to ensure these impactful projects are completed. For the builders focused on making a social impact, 1031 exchange proceeds supporting social impact. Across the U.S., investors are recognizing the investment opportunities and the importance of securing rental properties to provide housing other than multi-family properties. During the COVID-19 pandemic, and for years to come, families will continue to seek a home as opposed to dense community living. For SFR companies that eventually sell the homes to their renters, using 1031 exchanges keeps their cost of capital low due to the deferral, which allows them to pass that on through lower rents and lower sale prices to the eventual tenant and buyer
    So, for skeptics out there, first understand the rules around
