I have a character in my new novel that I need to get from the USA to Germany. He's a real estate developer, and I was thinking of having him use a 1034 roll over to take money from his USA home sale and spend it on a home in Germany.
*** Can he flip his profits outside the US with a 1034 exchange?
*** Is there some OTHER real estate or financial reason he would be compelled to move money from the US (North Carolina) to Germany (Black Forrest resort area)?
In the end, readers of the novel will learn there was a ghost behind this whole thing, but in the story, our hero needs his own reason to get to the Black Forrest. Thanks for your feedback and suggestions.
I have 2 homes. One I live in, the other I rent out. I am retiring, and I would like to sell both the rental and my home to buy another home. Is there a way to do this to avoid capital gains?
I'm no CPA, but I don't believe you can involve a personal residence in any type of 1031 exchange situation. The good news, as you probably already know, is that you can take up to $250k in gains (or $500k if married) tax free on the sale of a personal residence.
Now, if both properties were rentals, you could definitely exchange both for another home in a 1031 exchange. You could rent the exchanged property for awhile, move in if you wanted, and convert it to a personal residence. However, I believe there has been some very recent IRS code changes that may have negated or minimized the benefits of using this type of scenario to limit or negate capital gains exposure.
It's more than worth it, though, to find a good CPA who is knowledgeable in these matters to assist you. Don't rely on advice here as the final word.
Hi! Could you kindly recommend some good quality real estate websites for link exchange (or as link / site partners)? Thanks.
www.marshallwalker.com is a great site to exchange links with!
It is possible by the agreement of the two parties. But i dont think this is prevalent because everyone's homes have different values. And if they were worth the same there is a small chance they would like each other's homes. They would be limiting themselves because there are tons of options.
geez i feel for it again. EVERYONE, THIS GUYS A SPAMMER!
