Mark, I'm pretty sure you can't do a 1031 exchange with a foreign property.

Dear All:
PC owns a 4-plex in Auburn.  He has thought about selling the Auburn property but knows that he would be hit with significant capital gains.  So, in his call, PC expressed an interest in exchanging the Auburn property with real estate in Abu Dhabi or Dubai where he has family.
I don't do 1031 exchanges (or if that would even be applicable), and I do not handle transactions involving foreign properties.
Who amongst you would be willing to talk to this PC?
Thanks.
