Yes, you can buy a new property before selling the old property and still qualify. This is called a "reverse" exchange. The qualified intermediary takes title to the new property you buy and holds it for you until you sell your old property.
Almost every kind of real estate is considered "like-kind" and can be exchanged for any other real estate, including vacant land for apartments, a rental house for a shopping center, an office building for a leasehold interest with 30 years or more remaining, as long as you hold them for investment or business use.

A 1031 exchange is a method of tax deferral upon the sale of investment real estate. However, the decision to pay or not pay accumulated and/or deferred taxes is up to the taxpayer, who has control over whether transactions are completed tax-deferred, or tax-free! If an exchanger should decide to continue exchanging into investment property of same or greater value for life, and never sell investment property without utilizing a 1031 exchange, no taxes would be due on any transactions, making them tax-free! Even in the event the taxpayer dies, the taxes die with him, again making the transactions tax-free! Because the choice is up to the taxpayer, we like to say taxes in an exchange are deferred, unless you choose to sell tax-free with Plenti Financial!
