Frequently Asked Questions
What medical office properties qualify as like kind replacement property in Charlotte, NC?+
Any medical office property held for investment or productive use in a trade or business qualifies as like kind to other real property held for the same purposes. This includes medical office buildings, ambulatory surgery centers, specialty medical facilities, and other healthcare real estate. The property must be real property, not personal property or medical equipment. In Charlotte, NC exchanges, we verify like kind status for each medical office candidate.
How do the 45 and 180 day deadlines apply to medical office replacements in Charlotte, NC?+
The 45 day identification deadline requires written identification of replacement medical office properties before midnight on day 45 after closing the relinquished property. The 180 day closing deadline requires closing on replacement property before midnight on day 180. Missing either deadline disqualifies the exchange. We help Charlotte, NC investors meet both deadlines through systematic property search and coordinated closing management.
What is boot and how does it affect medical office exchanges in Charlotte, NC?+
Boot is any cash, debt relief, or non like kind property received in the exchange. If your replacement medical office property has less debt than the relinquished property, you receive boot equal to the debt reduction. Boot is taxable as capital gain and depreciation recapture. In Charlotte, NC exchanges, we help structure medical office acquisitions to minimize boot exposure by matching debt levels.
