IPX1031 Releases 2025 Trends: Key Insights for the CRE Market and 1031 Exchanges

2025 Trends in 1031 Exchanges and Commercial Real Estate

CHICAGO, Jan. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Investment Property Exchange Services, Inc. (IPX1031), the national leader in 1031 Qualified Intermediary services, has released its annual 1031 trends, outlining the key developments expected in the commercial real estate (CRE) market and the 1031 Exchange landscape for 2025. As economic conditions and market dynamics evolve, staying informed on these trends is crucial for investors and property owners.

"Utilizing 1031 Exchanges fosters economic growth by enabling capital reinvestment and job creation," IPX1031 President John Wunderlich stated. "We strive to provide investors with the essential knowledge and tools to navigate the complexities of the market and maximize 1031 investment potential."

Given the anticipated growth in the CRE market, 1031 transactions will stay active as informed investors and commercial property owners employ strategic 1031 tax deferral tools.

Anticipated 1031 Exchange Trends for 2025:

• Reverse and Improvement (Build-to-Suit) Exchanges: Increased popularity due to higher interest rates and limited quality inventory.
• Maturing Loans and Refinancing: Significant transactional activity driven by maturing loans and the need for better ROI and loan terms through 1031 Exchanges.
• Seller Financing: Traditional financing challenges will lead to more seller-financed transactions.
• Shifts in Asset Classes: Multifamily, industrial, and retail properties are expected to see robust activity.
• Passive Investments: A shift towards exchanging management-intensive properties for passive investment types like NNN (Triple Net Lease) and fractional ownership properties such as DSTs (Delaware Statutory Trusts).
• Geographical Shifts: Owners will continue shifting investment property purchases to more landlord regulatory friendly areas.
• ADU/Mixed-Use Growth: Thriving 1031 opportunities for properties with accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and mixed-use properties.
• Retirement-Friendly Areas:  Increased 1031 investment in regions with favorable and attractive retirement conditions.
