1031 Exchange

[Brian EA]

Does page 3 of the attachment specifically “When to Report an Exchange” address your issue? Have you read it?

Yes, it has.
Thanks

Everything was done according to the rules of a 1031 Exchange.
The question is: Can I close the deal by reporting the purchases completed in 2022 on the 2021 return or do I have to wait until I file the 2022 return?
Thanks

Hopefully you worked closely with the “third party” 1031 expert.

If you read the rules and it conforms and read “The 45-day identification period and 180-day exchange periods start when the first of several sales close”, and references provided, do you still have an issue?

Building was sold in December and handled by a third-party intermediary. Three replacement buildings were purchased in January 2022.

Brian: If the rules were followed then you poorly described what happened. He could not sell them in December and purchase 3 new ones in January. It has to be all one transaction and it has to be handled by a third party. Did he sell it in December? Did he purchase then in January? Did a third-party intermediary do all the transactions?

Do the “rules” below help?

This does not sound like a 1031 exchange but as a sale of one asset and a purchase 3 assets.

Taxpayer sold Rental building on December 1st, 2021. He purchased 3 other rental buildings in January of 2022 in a 1031 exchange.
