Purchase using 1031 and personal funds

[Nick McMahan]

I am considering selling a property that will have about a 60k gain and using a 1031 exchange to purchase another property for 110k.  I will use personal funds from a Helock for the remaining 50k of the purchase plus any renovations.  I was told by a CPA that once the newly acquired property sells in the future the gain from both sales would then be taxable because I am mixing 1031 funds and personal funds for this purchase.  I have never done a 1031 exchange but was under the impression that one could roll the gains from one property to another and so on.  I'm exploring all the resources I can read and am still unclear.  Can someone clarify if I am understanding incorrectly or if I was misinformed?  Best regards,

Nick

Your CPA might be right, but I would also talk to a 1031 intermediary like @Dave Foster to make sure that you are doing 1031 correctly. I don't think using the personal fund is the issue here.

I don't know what you are selling your current house for, but $60k gain (and I don't know how you define "gain." What goes into the bank account may not be necessary the IRS's definition) the replacement property is $110k sounds like you may sell the current house below $110k, in which case you may have some tax consequences. Again, talk to professionals.
