Question:
According to Mr. Jones on July 01, 2019, he and his wife exchanged their two-family house in Westchester County (400 Pinebrook Blvd, New Rochelle, NY), which they rented entirely from January 01, 2010 to July 01, 2019, for a four-family rental property located at 685 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY. At the time of the exchange, the FMV of the two-family house was $1,025,000, and the adjusted basis was $??????? (Calculate based on information provided below). The six-family house had an adjusted basis of $600,000 and an FMV of $900,000. The two-family home was subject to a $125,000 mortgage, which the buyer assumed.
Question:
Can you please show me how you get the adjusted basis for the Jones exchange of property? I know this is a 1031 exchange & I know there has to be depreciation to get the adjusted basis, but I'm not sure how to do it.
