Ok. The timber gets cut under a contract to buy it, so I guess that means
it is sold as real estate, right.
Who do you use as the 1031 faciltator?

The sale of standing timber is considered as real estate see WAC 458-61A-113
since it is subject to the real estate excise tax. I have done several of
these types of 1031s and never questioned as long as timber is still in the
ground when sold.

Here is the line from the IRS information website that I think clearly
denies the use of a 1031 Exchange to a the situation where the owner of real
property with timber on it sells the timber and then wants to use the
proceeds from the timber sale to buy more real estate. The trees are
personal property, are they not?
"Real property and personal property can both qualify as exchange properties
under Section 1031; but real property can never be like-kind to personal
property."
