Is there an Australia version of the USA 1031 Exchange.
The way it works, lets say you have a $100,000 propertry you buy and sell it 3 years later for $300,000. You have $200,000 that is subject to capital gains. In the USA you can use special companies that put that $200,000 into a 1031 exchange and you then pull the money out and use it to buy another property and you are exempt from paying capital gains... Untill you cash out or you can just keep using the 1031 to buy bigger and bigger property...
Is there an Australian equivilant of like foreclosures is it something that Australia doesn't have access to?
Thanks
