@Lexi Blocksom If the burden of holding the property outweighs the long-term gains, a 1031 exchange allows you to defer all taxes, and you won’t have to recapture depreciation.This option enables you to use the deferred tax benefits to purchase nicer properties in areas with greater growth potential.Once you complete your exchange, you can immediately do a cash-out refinance if you need access to some cash, tax-free.
