Reverse 1031 Exchange
1031 tax-deferred exchanges generally fall into three categories: delayed, reverse, and build-to-suit. While delayed 1031 exchanges are the most common, real estate investors use a reverse 1031 exchange when they must close on the replacement property before the relinquished property is sold.

In a 1031 exchange, the intermediary temporarily holds the relinquished or replacement property, creating a ‘safe harbor’ to comply with the rules of the 1031 exchange.
