The recap of this law is that any property with a profitable usage, which is to mean a home, building, or business, can be exchanged for a property of like-kind without the profits or losses being recognized as such.

Without a 1031 exchange California style, the taxes on the initial sale of the $100,000 home would be $35,000. This money would come out of what the actress can use as a down payment on the new property. That would mean that with 25% percent down, the actress could only get a loan for $300,000 and purchase a property, provided a 75% loan to value ratio, worth $360,000. If that same actress were to use a 1031 exchange California style, the $100,000 home could be sold with no taxes on the sale.
