1031 exchange (exact amount)

For an 1031 exchange, let's say I am selling a property for $200,000 (no mortgage).  I have closing costs, commissions (12,000), etc.  Let's assume the end result will be maybe $180,000.

Is $180,000 the amount I need to buy the new property for?

Or do I have to come up with the difference, which would be an extra $20,000?

Thank you!
