Both 1031 exchange and installment rules apply. First, 1031 will limit the recognized gain to the fair market value of the net boot received. (This is a mandatory rule—not elective.) After the recognized gain is figured under 1031, the installment rules under IRS Section 453 are applied. Installment sale rules are elective—you may elect-out if you desire.
Your installment sale Contract Price does not include the fair market value of the like-kind property you receive in the exchange. Therefore, like-kind property you receive in the exchange is not treated as payment received.
Your installment sale Gross Profit (recognized gain) is reduced by gain not recognized in the exchange.
Caution : Using the installment method of tax reporting is elective—not mandatory. It’s your choice. You can recognize all the gain in the year of the exchange if you want depending on your other income and losses during the year of the exchange. For example, if you had large capital losses during the year, you might elect to recognize the entire gain and offset it against the capital losses. Your call.
