Real Estate investors interested in selling their properties should consider a 1031 exchange in order to roll over their capital gains from their investment.

Here are some tips on getting started on a 1031 exchange :

1)     Select Your Professionals:   

Choose an attorney or accountant who has experience dealing with exchanges specifically – not just general tax matters – as well as someone knowledgeable about current laws governing them so there aren't any surprises down line when filing returns later on down road! This team should also include qualified intermediaries who will handle escrow services throughout duration of transaction itself plus provide advice where needed too if questions arise at any time throughout the entire process.   

2)     Get Organized: 

Double check numbers & documents related both transactions being exchanged carefully before signing off anything; make sure everything adds up correctly & accurately reflects terms agreed upon between parties involved prior moving forward which could save time later if something goes wrong somewhere along way due to errors made now instead of having to discover issues further down the line after already completing the deal! 
 

3)     Monitor Progress Regularly: 

Track progress closely while working through exchanging properties to ensure all deadlines are met properly to avoid potential penalties incurred as a result of forgetting to file something in a timely manner before the close of the transaction date.
 

4)     Understand All Tax Implications:   

Speak to advisors familiar with taxation issues surrounding exchanges and thoroughly research possible limitations of the regulations that may apply to your situation.    

The best prepared action taken in whatever case requires you and your team to fulfill all of the requirements necessary to achieve the desired outcome and goal set forth at the beginning of the transaction.  

For instance, since there are multiple parties involved, in order to succeed in achieving their goals established at the outset, it is advisable to be clear in their contract negotiation phase and create an agreement signed between all entities that are participating in the transaction or if it is a joint venture together, for their mutual benefit.
