@DJFAULDS The purpose of the 1031 is to defer paying taxes on the gains. If you have a loss, I don't know why you would do a 1031 exchange. But, you have your reasons. Since it is done, you would need to carry that loss into the new building. The old building would be marked as sold. Property that has been disposed of, no longer carries a loss.
