1031 exchanges in Boise: simple, stress-free, and done right


If you’re a real estate investor interested in Idaho, a 1031 exchange can be the cleanest, least expensive way to level up and scale your portfolio—deferring capital-gains taxes while you trade into better cash flow, newer assets, or a location that fits your goals. Notice I said deferring, not “eliminating.” That distinction matters. Any real estate agent that tells you that an exchange will eliminate your tax burden does not understand the process or strategy.  With the right plan, you can defer both capital gains and depreciation recapture again and again, compounding your equity over time. Today is the second-best time to buy real estate—the best time was yesterday—so let’s keep it simple and talk about how we make 1031s easy.


How a 1031 exchange actually works


In a like-kind exchange, you sell your relinquished property and use a qualified intermediary (QI) to hold the proceeds so you don’t take constructive receipt. You then identify up to three replacement properties within 45 days and close within 180 days. The rules are strict, the clock is real, and paperwork must line up with your purchase and sale agreements, title, and escrow—this is where most investors feel the stress. Our job is to remove it. We line up viable Boise-area replacement options early, coordinate with your QI, and keep everyone (title officer, lender, CPA) moving so you never miss a deadline. Never done an exchange before? No problem, we have a full blown team of experienced professionals and can line up all of those connections for you and keep the process simple and, dare we say FUN?


“Eliminate taxes”? Nope—defer them (and why that’s powerful)


Bad advice floats around that 1031 exchanges “erase” your taxes. They don’t. A 1031 defers capital gains and depreciation recapture into the next property. But here’s the opportunity: you can exchange repeatedly, potentially step up over time into larger, better-performing assets, and even pair exchanges with long-term estate strategies your CPA can advise on. No hype—just options and tradeoffs. We’re not your tax advisor or tax professionals,  but we’ll collaborate tightly with your CPA so the strategy fits your bigger financial plan and help you achieve your personal financial freedom goals. Isn't that what it's truly all about?

Why work with us for your Boise 1031 exchange


We do dozens of 1031 exchanges every year and have never missed a deadline. Because we specialize in Boise-area investment property, we usually have replacement properties under contract before your sale even closes. Relationships > experienced negotiation: our local network of qualified intermediaries, title officers, lenders, inspectors, and CPAs helps us solve problems fast—inspection timelines, occupancy issues, rent-ready turns, appraisal and escrow coordination. Price is only one lever; we also pull closing windows, occupancy delays, earnest money structure, and contingency strategies to protect your timeline and tax deferral while maximizing your leverage and getting you the best deal possible.


Our simple, stress-free process


  • Goal + numbers first. We clarify yield targets, depreciation needs, and hold period so the buy box is crystal clear.
  • Pre-identify inventory. MLS and off-market options that fit 45-day ID rules; we prep contracts and disclosures early.
  • Tight vendor choreography. We coordinate QI instructions, title/escrow language, and lender milestones so funds move cleanly.
  • Inspection + negotiation with purpose. We focus on material items and credits that keep the exchange on track—no deal-killing drama.
  • Close and handoff. Property management, rent-ready turns, and post-close checklists so your new asset performs on day one.
