At Genesis Bank Exchange, we recently completed an Improvement Exchange (also known as a Build-to-Suit Exchange or Construction Exchange) that exemplifies the strategic advantages of this 1031 Exchange structure. Our client, with three separate relinquished properties totaling $55 million in value, rolled into one replacement property valued at $49.5 million. Through this exchange, the client utilized the remaining $6 million in exchange funds to make improvements to their replacement property.
In a market with limited options at the time, the Improvement Exchange structure provided our client with a larger selection of replacement properties to choose from and the flexibility to use the exchange funds for improvements. By taking the time to plan out potential improvements prior to the sale of the relinquished properties, our client was able to maximize the use of their exchange funds and ensure that all improvements were completed within the 1031 Exchange timeframe.
Improvement Exchanges offer several key benefits for investors looking to enhance their investment portfolios:
