Examples of "like kind" real estate that would qualif y f or a1031 exchange include a mall that is changed f or land, an of f ice that is exchanged f or a shopping mall, ahouse block that is swapped f or a commercial building, or a property hired by a single f amily that isexchanged f or a Tic ( renters in common ) property. There's some private property that can qualif y f or a1031 exchange, like a painting, but personal houses are excluded. Only a qualif ied Third party ( QI ) mayhandle the proceeds of the sale of the f irst property, otherwise all proceeds will be considered taxable.
