Expert's Answer

In such a case, if you owe any tax- resulting from CPAs mistake- than the CPA will reimburse you with the interest and penalty that you may owe. The payment of tax will be your responsibility.

 

Generally, if you exchange business or investment property solely for business or investment property of a like-kind, no gain or loss is recognized under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031.
Generally vacation home or second home used for personal purposes only does not qualify for Sec 1031 exchange. Vacation homes may qualify as investment property if the taxpayer's personal use is limited and/or the home has been rented.


Let me know if you have any question.
