1031 between spouses?

[Derek Sperzel]

My Wife and I own SFR properties in Springfield, Ohio and we live in Indiana. My Wife has a W-2 and I've been a fulltime investor for about 5 years. The Properties in Ohio are in an LLC owned solely by my Wife and they are all owned free and clear. I've got a 16 unit complex under contract in Indiana near where we live and I want to sell one of our Ohio SFR via 1031 to help with the down-payment. All our Indiana properties are in single member LLCs in my name only (my Wife isn't active whatsoever in any of the rentals and inherited the Ohio properties). Is there a way to lawfully 1031 any of the Ohio properties into a new investment in Indiana and do so into an LLC not owned by my Wife (they'd go into an LLC owned by me solely)? OR could we do a partner LLC between her and I?

I'm assuming there are 1031 rules against this, but want to confirm. Thank you in advance.
