Making informed decisions about your real estate investments starts with understanding your potential tax savings. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new Capital Gains Tax Calculator – a powerful tool designed to help you visualize just how much you could save through a 1031 exchange.
Why Calculate Your Potential Savings?
Before making any major investment decision, you need to understand the numbers. Our calculator helps you see the real impact of capital gains taxes on your investment property sale and, more importantly, how much you could save by choosing a 1031 exchange strategy.
Using Our 1031 Exchange Calculator: A Step-by-Step Guide
To get the most accurate picture of your potential savings, you’ll need to gather a few key numbers:
1. Original Purchase Price (Required)
- This is the amount you initially paid for your investment property
- Include all original acquisition costs
2. Improvements
- Total cost of capital improvements made during ownership
- These are substantial upgrades, not routine maintenance
- Examples include new roofing, room additions, or major renovations
3. Accumulated Depreciation
- The total amount of depreciation you’ve claimed over the years
- This can typically be found on your tax returns
- Your accountant can help you confirm this number
4. Sales Price (Required)
- Your expected or actual selling price
- Be realistic based on current market conditions
Understanding Your Results
The calculator will show you your potential capital gains tax liability – the amount you could save through a 1031 exchange. This number represents real dollars that could be reinvested in your next property instead of going to taxes.
Making Informed Decisions
Armed with these numbers, you can:
- Make more strategic decisions about timing your property sale
- Better understand your reinvestment potential
