Abstract
Related-party exchanges raise the issue of improper extension of the Section 1031(a)(3) 45-day identification and 180-day exchange periods. Related-party exchanges also call into question the amount of boot a related party may receive without triggering an abusive cash-out. A recent letter ruling involving two sequential related-party Section 1031 exchanges makes these issues doubly evident.
