Section 1031 Exchange Corp.

Section 1031 Exchange Corp. (a New Jersey Corporation) performs qualified intermediary services in exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, handling real property, personal property and multi-asset exchanges. We have performed intermediary services for properties throughout New Jersey and the eastern seaboard.

Section 1031 Exhange Corp. is an affiliate of two disciplines, each of which is vital to an effective tax free property exchange:

• Tax Law: The Law Offices of John M. Clyne, Jr., P.A.
• Tax Accounting: The Certified Public Accountancy firm of Clyne Eagan & Associates, P.A.

We are typically referred to transactions throughout New Jersey by real estate professionals, lawyers, and accountants. We provide both "hands-on" assistance in structuring tax free transactions and advice on potential risks and tax minimization strategies.

Section 1031 Exchange Corp. was one of the first entities - to our knowledge the only entity - to have a specialty in deploying Section 1031 tax free concepts to defer the recognition of tax on the sale of developmental rights by farmers and land owners in the State of New Jersey.
