My 2 sisters and I want to sell a property in a trust in NYC and purchase 3 separate houses elsewhere through a 1031 exchange. Our questions are: 1) Can we purchase the 3 properties in each sister's name if the property is in a trust? 2) When does the 45-day replacement property identification rule start? 3) Can we choose an alternate property after the 45-day period but before the 180-day closing? 4) Does filing for a tax extension provide extra time to identify replacement properties? 5) Are we entitled to interest on funds held by a qualified intermediary? 6) Can the replacement properties be other types of investments besides real estate? 7) Can the sale closing be done electronically if one sister lives out of town?
