A 1031 exchange allows you to defer capital gains tax when selling and reinvesting in like-kind real estate. There are specific rules and timelines Learn more about 1031 exchange basics here from the IRS

Capital gains tax applies when you sell an asset—like real estate, stocks, or business interests—for more than you paid for it. The amount you owe depends on how long you held the asset and your total taxable income. Long-term capital gains (assets held over a year) are typically taxed at lower rates than short-term gains.

Common strategies to reduce or defer capital gains tax include:

  • 1031 exchanges for real estate
  • QSBS exclusions for startup equity
  • Strategic timing of gains and losses
  • Entity structuring to optimise how income is reported
