Investors & landlords

Thanks for the reply Susan. However, I'm referring to an "Exchange Fund", not an ETF. See https://www.barrons.com/articles/the-tax-benefits-of-exchange-funds-51560794410

 

Basically a tax-deferring vehicle where the "exchange" is not considered a sale. Cap gain should be deferred but it's unclear to me how the bargain element is treated.
