1031 Exchange temporary placeholder, delay?

[Ian Berg]

I'm selling a property that closes at the end of the month and will have close to $500k in proceeds. I think there will be more opportunity next year to reinvest and I should have more time to find deals. I'm looking for some creative strategies on where to park this money for the next 6-10 months. Basically I don't want to pay taxes on it now but want to have it available sometime next year. Any ideas?
