Illinois Capital Gains Reality

Selling appreciated corn and soybean farmland land in Illinois? Here's the tax math.

Combined federal capital gains, depreciation recapture, and Illinois's state capital gains rate of 4.95% flat (taxed as ordinary income) can hand 30 to 40% of your gain to taxes.

Illinois taxes capital gains as income at a flat 4.95%. Federal capital gains, NIIT, and depreciation recapture still apply on top, and can take a meaningful share of the gain depending on your bracket, depreciation history, and the type of gain.

A 1031 exchange into a Delaware Statutory Trust can defer all of that. Your proceeds buy a share of large, professionally managed real estate. The IRS waits. You get potential monthly income without the tenants, fences, or fuel bills.
