This article provides useful, detailed information about 1031 Exchange Forms.
Typically, the 1031 Exchange involves forms like brokers\' price opinion, exemption and nonresident waivers, affirmation of residency, declaration of trust, IRS 8824 like kind exchanges, lien waivers, mortgage interest deductions, multifamily mortgage applications, notice of trustees sale, personal financial statements, power of attorney, promissory note, quit claims, schedule of income property, signature affidavit AKA statement or tax information release forms.
IRS Form 8824 has three purposes. It is not very complicated to fill if the three main purposes are understood correctly. The first one is to help the taxpayer report the dates of sale and replacement property closings, together with identification dates. This is to verify 45/180 date requirements. This information has to be in Part One.
Second is for the taxpayer to highlight their sale and purchase numbers (sale price, selling expenses, adjusted basis, depreciation taken, cost of replacement property) in order to make clear whether there was a full or partial exchange. This information should go in Part Three.
The third purpose is to show the new tax basis of the replacement property. The exchange being a deferral of taxes, the gain incurred by the taxpayer in the old property has to show up in the new property through an equal amount of lesser basis. This information must be there in Part Four.
The information in IRS Form 8824 makes the job of the IRS easy, to review a taxpayer\'s prior 8824 Forms to ascertain the appropriate amount of taxable gain and see whether taxes are paid as and when the taxpayer decides to sell and not exchange.
But the exchanger or investor need not be baffled by the forms. The companies hired by the investor would provide the guidance and assist them in filling them out. The follow-up is also their responsibility.
Other forms include General Forms and the Official Identification Form to identify Replacement Properties to be returned not later than 45 days after the close of the Relinquished Property. W-9 Form is to request a Taxpayer ID for the investor. Form 593-C is meant for California Residents doing any sort of exchanges.
Forms related to funding issues include Request for Verification of Funds. This is to obtain a statement of the balance in the account, for the client himself or third parties, lenders, etc. The Miscellaneous Disbursement Request form is for releasing disbursements for appraisals, inspection fees, loan fees, etc.
Request for Return of Exchange Funds is for releasing the remaining exchange funds after the exchange is completed, and not for requesting closing money. Earnest Money Deposit Request is for the closing agent, and not for requesting closing money.
There are two major forms of tax-deferred exchanges--simultaneous exchange and delayed exchange. Numerous variations of these two fall into one category or the other.
The most basic type of exchange is the simultaneous exchange, known as In Lieu Exchange. To illustrate, in simultaneous exchange, the seller wants to sell the property A, agreeing to accept Property B in lieu of cash payment. If the Buyer already owns Property B, then the two parties simultaneously transfer their respective properties adhering to the value rules.
In the case of the buyer not owning property B, the buyer must purchase Property B and transfer it to the seller simultaneously with transfer of Property A to the buyer. To preserve the tax-deferred status of the transaction for the seller, he must not receive any cash or debt relief.
The other is delayed exchange known as a Starker exchange. This delayed exchange is done using a Qualified Intermediary (QI). In this type, the seller closes the sale of his property and escrows the proceeds of the sale with a QI. Here the seller is handicapped from taking possession of the proceeds in order to enjoy the tax-deferral status of the transaction.
After closing the sale of his property , the seller gets 45 days to identify the property or properties to be exchanged and should submit that in writing to the QI. The identified properties have to be purchased within 180 days of the sale of the relinquished property.
