I've done a little more searching via the internet and maybe you can save postage. I have one important question though. Can a limited partner in a building use an exhchange. The building I'm in is a office building in Ketchum, Idaho. If I can, I assume that I would have to go into a similar building... like kind.

Hello Roger,

A limited partner in a building generally can not use an exchange.

The partnership itself can make an exchange.

The partnership could be liquidated and eventually the partners could exchange their interests in the property formerly in the partnership.
