        "text": "If a 1031 exchange fails, the sale of your relinquished property will be treated as a taxable event. This means you will owe capital gains taxes on any profit from the sale, which could include federal and potentially state taxes. Additionally, you may also owe depreciation recapture taxes. The capital gains tax rates depend on your income and how long you owned the property. Therefore, understanding and adhering to all 1031 exchange rules is paramount to avoid unexpected tax liabilities.",
