Understanding the Qualified Use Requirement
What are the Qualified Use Requirements?
Investors often ask "what am I allowed to do with my property?"
The properties sold and acquired in a 1031 Exchange must satisfy the Qualified Use requirement. Qualified Use means the properties must be held for rental, investment, or business use. The critical issue is that you must have the intent to hold the properties for rental or investment purposes -- not for sale. The length of time you hold the properties is one factor in determining whether you meet the "intent to hold" requirement. It is generally considered safe if you hold your property for at least two years, reasonably safe if you hold for one year, and risky if you hold for less than one year.
Investors who purchase property with the intent of fixing it up and selling it for profit (flipping), fail to meet the intent to hold test. The IRS considers flipping transactions to be held for sale -- not held for investment.
