Eric Smith 1031 exchange with a related party
7 February 2025 | 6 replies
However, purchasing the replacement property from an estate where your mother-in-law is the executor and other heirs are your wife's aunts and cousins raises potential related-party concerns under Section 1031(f).The IRS generally prohibits 1031 exchanges between related parties unless both the buyer and seller hold their respective properties for at least two years after the exchange.To stay compliant and avoid disqualification, ensure:The estate sells the property directly before any distributions to heirs.You hold the replacement property for at least two years.The transaction is conducted at fair market value with no prearranged agreements.Given the IRS scrutiny of related-party 1031 exchanges, consult a qualified CPA or 1031 exchange accommodator to structure the deal properly and avoid potential capital gains tax liabilities.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Mindy Perry property management software and 1099 K
31 January 2025 | 7 replies
My CPA was unsure... do you issue 1090-NEC for the difference between 1099-K and 1099-MISC or do you double up the income (i.e. 1099-NEC for gross rents from PM, 1099-K of the net owner distribution on 1099-K, then owner reports double income and puts a line item expense for the 1099-K since 1099-MISC covers gross rents).You need a new accountant lolPM issues 1099-MISC, not NEC for rental income paid to property owners.You would still issue the rental income paid to the owners regardless of the payment method.The Property Owners should add an expense line item on Schedule C stating that income reported twice on Form 1099 to offset any duplicated amount.
