Hi ,
If you have been reading THE PAPER SOURCE JOURNAL for awhile, you know that I have often warned that Biden's caregivers want to do away with 1031 like-kind real estate exchanges. Their $1.8 trillion “American Families Plan” would
effectively eliminate most real estate exchanges, and that would do great damage to our economy (so much for “American families”).
Exchanges encourage real estate activity and are therefore a powerful stimulator of national, state, and local economies. People who use them range from owners of rental houses, small apartment buildings, commercial properties, small businesses, and most farmers. Given the administration’s desire to raise federal capital gains tax rates
to 43% and eliminate the stepped-up basis, 1031 exchanges are indispensable to a healthy economy.
