1031 Exchange - Capital Gains Question
Situation;
I have a rental property bought in March of 2012 for the amount of $220K.
(Initially used as Primary Residence until Oct of 2017)
Before moving out, In January of 2017, I did a cash-out refinance, and the new loan balance is about $315K.
(The cash out money I used to by another house)
The current property value is about $560K-$590K.
Now, I'm planning to sell my rental and do a 1031 Exchange to deferred paying taxes.
Problem/Question;
(Here's the part I'm not sure how it works)
Since my base price is $220K, which means I have approximately $315K in gains after paying fees/commissions.
But the existing loan is $310K, which means in closing I will clear approximately $220K.
There is a difference of $95K compared to my true capital gains.
Then, do I have to come up with another 95K to add to my $220K if I have to do a 1031 exchange?
How will this work? How should I proceed with this?
Is 1031 Exchange even an option or should I just pay capital gains?
Thank you all for responding...
