Understanding Your Results
Adjusted Basis
Your original purchase price plus capital improvements, minus accumulated depreciation. This is the amount used to calculate your gain.
Realized Gain
The difference between your sale price and adjusted basis (minus selling costs). This is the amount subject to capital gains tax.
Tax Deferral
The amount of capital gains taxes you can defer by completing a 1031 exchange. Taxes are deferred, not eliminated, until you sell the replacement property.
Net Benefit
Your tax deferral amount minus estimated exchange costs. This represents the net financial benefit of completing the exchange.
