If you’re selling investment real estate located anywhere in Illinois, a properly structured Section 1031 Like-Kind Exchange may allow you to defer capital gains taxes while reinvesting in qualifying replacement property.
Bank & Trust Company serves as a neutral Qualified Intermediary, helping facilitate exchanges in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 1031.

- Rental Homes
- Apartment Buildings
- Commercial Property
- Farm Ground
- Vacant Land

- Retail Property
Our experienced team coordinates exchange documents, escrowed exchange proceeds, required deadlines, and communication with your closing attorney, title company, CPA, and real estate agent.
