Frequently Asked Questions

Why are medical office buildings good replacement properties for 1031 exchanges?

Medical office buildings provide stable, recession-resistant income because healthcare demand is driven by population demographics rather than economic cycles. Tenants like physician groups, dental practices, and hospital systems sign long-term leases and invest heavily in tenant improvements, making them less likely to relocate. Many medical office leases include annual rent bumps and NNN or modified gross structures. We help Washington DC investors identify medical office replacement properties with credit tenants in all 50 states.

What should I evaluate in a medical office building for a 1031 exchange?

Key evaluation criteria include tenant credit quality, remaining lease term, proximity to hospitals or medical campuses, building age and condition, specialized infrastructure like medical gas or imaging suites, and rent escalation structures. For 1031 exchange buyers on a deadline, we prioritize stabilized medical office buildings with verified rent rolls, strong occupancy, and creditworthy tenants. We source these properties in all 50 states and coordinate closings within your exchange timeline.

Can I exchange from residential or retail property into a medical office building?

Yes. Under IRS like-kind exchange rules, you can exchange from virtually any type of investment real estate into a medical office building, including residential rental property, single tenant NNN retail, industrial, or vacant land. The key requirement is that both the relinquished and replacement properties are held for investment or used in a trade or business. We help Washington DC investors navigate this transition and identify qualifying medical office properties in all 50 states.
