For many years running now, the Centennial State has ranked in the top 10 of Forbes’ annual analysis of business costs, labor supply, regulatory environment, economic climate, growth prospects, quality of life, and population. One essential point of clarification for Colorado as an ideal state to do business in is that the state ranks in the top three for labor supply and economic climate, while 80 percent of other states beat out Colorado in the analysis of the cost of doing business. What does this mean for small business owners in Colorado?

Navigating the tax code is a lengthy and tedious process - especially if you are unfamiliar with the code itself and how to identify potential benefits. One key benefit that those with investment properties can leverage is that of the 1031 exchange transaction. A 1031 exchange is a transaction that allows you to sell a rental or investment property and defer all capital gains taxes that would come on a sale by essentially reinvesting your would-be profits into another investment property. A 1031 exchange is not the ideal solution for every real estate transaction, but when it is, this particular type of transaction can save investors hundreds of thousands (or even millions) of dollars in taxes.
