What is an escrow and how does it benefit me?

on Tue, 06/27/2017 - 09:31   Martin Edwards
what is escow

Escrow is an arrangement in which transacting parties retain a third party, an escrow agent or escrowee, whose job is to safeguard funds and assets according to conditions that have been agreed upon in advance. Such an arrangement protects the transacting parties in the deal, providing that neither has an unfair advantage and that both are earnest about the deal.

Like-Kind Exchange News Round-Up, June 18 – June 24

Trump Tax Plan

Last week we heard a chorus of voices from around the web urging the preservation of like-kind exchanges in any forthcoming tax reform. Graniterock CFO Steve Snodgrass characterized the unprecedented cross-industry support this way:  "Rarely do the interests of small businesses owners, construction equipment intensive businesses and a broad range of local entrepreneurs agree with almost a century of federal income tax policy — especially when it results in billions of dollars in taxes being paid. But fortunately for the economy, they...

Rules for Real Estate and Personal Property Exchanges are not always of Like-Kind

Real Estate versus Personal Property in a 1031 Like-Kind Exchange

Differences between Real & Personal Property Exchanges

The 1991 Treasury Department regulations set forth detailed guidelines for tax deferred exchanges of real property and personal property. Prior to that time, exchanges could be done but very little guidance was available to make sure they were done correctly. This set of rules and regulations covered like-kind exchanges of both real and personal property. However, these two types of exchange property are not covered the same way. Below, I’ll summarize some of the...

Bloomberg BNA Report Addresses Farmer Concerns over Tax Reform

Like-kind exchange preservation a real concern for farmers

It is unclear where like-kind exchanges stand in forthcoming tax reform, but any tax plan that attempts to replace like-kind exchanges with immediate-expensing would create a big gap for taxpayers significantly invested in land assets since the immediate-expensing provision in the House Republican tax reform blueprint doesn't apply to land. This Bloomberg BNA Daily Tax Report from June 1, 2017 examines the particular plight of farmers in this scenario, for whom such a plan would be disastrous.

Ritchie Bros. Acquisition of IronPlanet Nears Completion

on Wed, 05/31/2017 - 07:40   Mark Flanagan
Ritchie Bros. Acquisition of IronPlanet

In mid-May, Ritchie Bros. received unconditional antitrust clearance from the U.S. Department of Justice for its acquisition of online auctioneer, IronPlanet. Ritchie Bros.' acquisition of IronPlanet will officially close in the coming weeks, further diversifying the channels through which customers buy and sell equipment. According to Jim Barr, Ritchie Bros. group president of emerging businesses, brand innovation and technology, the company has shifted strategically in the past few years from auction to multichannel asset disposition, and the IronPlanet acquisition was the next logical step in that strategy. “Each company has a great set of solutions," Jim Barr told Construction Equipment Guide. “We won't be getting rid of any of them. We want our customers to choose whatever solution best suits their needs.”
