New Mexico Capital Gains Reality
Selling appreciated cattle range and irrigated farmland land in New Mexico? Here's the tax math.
Combined federal capital gains, depreciation recapture, and New Mexico's state capital gains rate of Up to 5.9% (general capital gains deduction capped at $2,500 since 2025) can hand 30 to 40% of your gain to taxes.
Since 2025 New Mexico caps the general capital gains deduction at $2,500 and taxes the rest as income at a top rate of 5.9%. A larger 40% deduction applies only to the sale of a qualifying New Mexico business. 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.
