Description
When property is lost due to an involuntary conversion such as a taking by eminent domain, destruction by natural disaster, or theft, many clients assume they must immediately face a significant tax burden from compensation received. However, IRS §1033 provides a powerful alternative—tax-deferral through strategic reinvestment. Understanding the nuances of 1033 exchanges allows attorneys to guide clients through the process, ensuring they maximize tax benefits and rebuild wealth effectively.
