Exchanging Between States

Q:

Exchange Question

What if I sell Florida then use only some of the money for another property in another state?  Or can I use it to pay off one of the other financed properties?

A:

Like kind replacement real property can be in any state; not just the one where the original property was located.

If you reinvest less than the net sales price, you will have to report as taxable income the difference; the amount you missed the target replacement price by.

Paying off loans on property you already own is not a like kind investment.  You have to acquire new property.

Your personal professional tax advisor should be able to help you with real numbers for your unique circumstances.

Good luck.
