Capital Gain Tax Deferral

Allan R.

Posted

The next stage in my real estate income is being geared towards new construction. I am predicting more money in selling newly built homes compared to buying, rehabbing, and flipping. 

We are allowed to run 1031 exchanges to defer the tax when selling a lower priced home to purchase a higher price investment. 

Is there a way to do the same when selling a home and using the funds to build a new home?

I will need to sell 2 homes to have enough cash to build the house that will also be intended for sale after built. 

I plan on using all the funds from that sale to build 2 more houses. From there I wall start dipping into the profits. It be nice If I can defer the taxes once again after I sell the new built home to build the other 2 homes. 

Any ideas or thoughts?
