sell rental, 1031 exch, purchase current primary home under LLC
Wondering if it is legal for tax/capital gains to do the following:
Sell a current rental property in my portfolio (1031 exchange the profit), structure an LLC to purchase my current primary residence from myself (would be selling my primary home to a business that I now own) utilizing the 1031 exchanged money for the large down-payment; therefor I would be able to pull out capital gains tax free under the IRS primary residence guidelines (250K single 500K married).
I understand that I would no longer have a primary residence but I will be purchasing a new primary residence and renting out the property newly owned by the LLC within a few months after the sale.
Thanks in advance for any information!
