What is the issue?

To successfully complete a 1031 exchange and defer 100% of your capital gains tax, you must replace the net sales price of your property.

Example:

Let's say you owed $200,000 on the relinquished property at the time of sale, that amount must be repaid when the property is sold. After, the repayment of the loan your will have $300,000 in cash to purchase a replacement property that costs at least $500,000. You will either have to make up the difference or take out a new loan to follow the 1031 exchange guidelines.
