1031 exchange selling property in an LLC question

[Darlene S.]

I am in a 2 member LLC (husband and I) for which we file a partnership return the K-1 information is then reported on our joint tax return. We would like to sell property that is in the LLC. I have been told to sell and purchase in LLC. However now the mortgage specialist says that I need to quit claim before I sell property because it would be difficult to get a loan through the LLC to purchase new properties. 1031 specialist says whatever we do don't quit claim or it will risk the 1031 exchange. All I want is to be able to do a1031 exchange and not be in a position at the end of the whole process to discover it was done incorrectly and that I am liable for all my capital gains that I am trying to avoid. Anyone have suggestions? We cannot be the only one who has done this before. I do not want to reinvent the wheel.
