FAQs

 
How do I handle distributions, income or expense allocation among partners?

All distributions, income and expense allocations should be defined within the partnership agreement that was signed when the partnership was established. Work with your income tax preparer to determine the proper accounting for tax purposes.

 
What are the taxable amounts on the sale of real estate?

If there is a gain on the sale of the real estate, it will be taxed as capital property. If the gain is deferred, (1031 Exchange), then any gain on the sale of the property will be added to the basis of any like-kind property purchased in the required time frame. (See 1031 exchange requirements.) Consult with your tax advisor or CPA to assist with implementing the requirements for a 1031 exchange.
