I found this insightful video about the 1031 Exchange program posted by Allen at Livelymoney. The video explains it really good, but the overall idea is to be able to put money you have made of previous real estate and put it in an exchange until you are ready to buy another piece of property. It is a good way to avoid having to pay capital gain tax on your profit and build up your real estate portfolio. Give it watch.
This is also a great video, for entertainment purposes, that I found posted by Johnathon on his site A Trade a Day.
