The growing popularity of the tax-deferred exchange

Article Abstract:

The use of tax-deferred exchanges offers real estate investors a chance to defer capital gains from taxation while using the money saved to generate more investment income. Basically, the move involves reinvesting real estate capital gains into new real estate ventures. The ventures will accumulate equity over time. This equity can then be transferred on a step-up basis to heirs in a tax free manner, in some instances.
