Spectrus Real Estate - 1031 Property(ies)


Although Spectrus is not a 1031 exchange accommodator, it is a leading provider of 1031 exchange properties (1031 properties). Since 2003, Spectrus has sold 149 high-quality, institutional-grade 1031 properties. Its 1031 properties are typically income-producing properties, but its 1031 properties can also be undeveloped land. And, mostly every property Spectrus will ever provide will be an eligible 1031 property.

What exactly is a 1031 property?

Before we examine exactly what a 1031 property is, let’s first look at how the IRS defines real estate in general. This will give us a better understanding of the concept of 1031 property.

The IRS defines real estate in four ways:

  1. Property held for personal use (Personal Property)
  2. Property held primarily for sale (Dealer Property)
  3. Property held for productive use in a trade or business (Business Property)
  4. Property held for investment (Investment Property)

Business property and investment property qualify as 1031 property, as long as both the property sold and the property bought are of like-kind. What the buyer does with the property after you sell it does not affect its status as a 1031 property, as it relates to you. It is your use of the property that determines whether it is a 1031 property.

Why is a 1031 property good for me?

A 1031 property is good for you because it allows you to defer paying costly capital gains taxes! Find out more about our 1031 properties by contacting a Spectrus sales executive today.
