As the most common exchange, the Delayed Exchange has specific rules and deadlines that must be adhered to in order to complete a successful exchange.
Identification Period - The Exchanger must identify replacement property within 45 calendar days of the first relinquished property transfer. Replacement Property transferred after the initial 45 day identification period requires written notification to a qualified intermediary during the 45 day Identification Period. Please note, Exchangers have the option of identifying more than one property for an exchange.
Exchange Period - The period during which the Exchanger must acquire Replacement Property in the exchange. The Exchange Period starts on the date the Exchanger transfers the first Relinquished Property and ends on the earlier of the 180th day thereafter or the due date (including extensions) of the Exchanger’s tax return for the year of the transfer of the Relinquished Property.
