💰 Tax Advantage
Florida has no state income tax and no capital gains tax. When you 1031 exchange into Florida property, you eliminate the state tax layer entirely. Combined with federal capital gains deferral, you reinvest 100% of your proceeds instead of 60-75% after taxes.
📈 Market Growth
Florida is the #2 population growth state in the US. Strong tenant demand for retail, food service, medical, and logistics means cap rates are stable and properties maintain pricing power. Population growth = long-term tenant sustainability.

1031 Exchange FAQs
How fast can you help me find a 1031 replacement property?
You have 45 days from your sale to identify replacement properties. We help you find candidates within the first 20 days, giving you time to analyze, inspect, and make an informed decision. Our deal analyzer provides instant cap rate analysis, cash flow projections, and investment metrics—no waiting for broker reports.
Can I use your deal analyzer for 1031 analysis?
Yes. Our 1031 Deal Analyzer is specifically built for 1031 exchangers. It calculates your reinvestment requirement, shows how much you can deploy, and projects cash flow net of depreciation recapture and state taxes. You see exactly how much capital you need to avoid boot, and whether the property makes financial sense for your timeline.
What types of properties qualify for 1031 exchange in Florida?
Most commercial real estate qualifies: NNN properties (Walgreens, CVS, Dollar General, etc.), multifamily apartments, industrial warehouses, medical office, retail centers, and land held for investment. The property must be held for productive use in business or investment—not personal use.
Why Florida for a 1031 exchange?
Florida has no state income tax and no capital gains tax. When you 1031 exchange from a high-tax state like California or New York into Florida NNN property, you eliminate the state tax layer entirely. Combined with federal capital gains deferral under IRC Section 1031, you maximize the capital available to reinvest and grow wealth faster.
Do I need a Qualified Intermediary?
Yes. The IRS requires a Qualified Intermediary (QI) to facilitate all 1031 exchanges. The QI holds the sale proceeds and ensures you don't take constructive receipt of cash—which would disqualify the exchange. We recommend choosing a QI that is FEA-member certified, carries E&O insurance, and segregates client funds.
What's the difference between the 45-day and 180-day periods?
The 45-Day Identification Period starts when you close on your sale. You must formally identify your replacement properties to the QI by day 45. The 180-Day Exchange Period is your overall deadline to close on at least one identified property. Most exchanges close within 120-150 days, but planning begins immediately after your sale closes.
