Indiana 1031 Exchange FAQ

Common questions from Indiana investors

How does a 1031 exchange work in Indiana?
A 1031 exchange in Indiana follows the same IRS rules as anywhere in the U.S. You sell an investment property, a qualified intermediary holds the proceeds, you identify replacement properties within 45 days, and close within 180 days. Indiana taxes capital gains at a flat 3.05% rate — one of the lowest in the nation.
Do I need a qualified intermediary in Indiana?
Yes. IRS rules require a qualified intermediary (QI) to facilitate your 1031 exchange. The QI holds your sale proceeds and ensures compliance with all deadlines. You cannot touch the funds yourself, or the exchange is disqualified. Talk to a certified QI today.
What properties qualify for a 1031 exchange in Indiana?
Any property held for investment or business use qualifies, including rental properties, multi-family housing, and industrial real estate. Primary residences and fix-and-flip properties do not qualify. Your replacement property can be in any U.S. state — you're not limited to Indiana.
Can I exchange my Indiana property for one in another state?
Absolutely. 1031 exchanges allow you to sell in Indiana and buy replacement property anywhere in the United States. Many investors use this to diversify into different markets or move into passive investments like DSTs.
