The 1031 Exchange

Network Advantage

We operate with a lean, tech-forward model that allows us to offer a simple flat $895 fee. Your exchange funds are placed in a dedicated, interest-bearing account, helping your money stay productive during the process.

Both the relinquished and replacement properties must be like-kind — meaning real estate held for investment or business purposes. The properties don't have to be identical, but personal residences, vacation homes used primarily for personal enjoyment, and fix-and-flip properties do not qualify. The replacement property must also be of equal or greater value to fully defer capital gains taxes.

Absolutely. Every client’s funds are placed in a dedicated, FDIC-insured account, never commingled with other assets. We also maintain $5 million in fidelity bonds and $5 million in E&O coverage.

Yes — if you reinvest all of your proceeds into a replacement property of equal or greater value, you can defer 100% of your capital gains taxes. Any funds not reinvested are considered "boot" and will be subject to capital gains tax.

Simply contact us before you sell your current property. We’ll draft the necessary documents and ensure your exchange is structured for maximum tax deferral.

The IRS defines like-kind broadly — any real estate held for investment or business use qualifies, regardless of property type. You can exchange a commercial building for a rental home, or raw land for an apartment complex. What matters is how the property is used, not what it looks like.

No. Our team is experienced in Reverse and Build-to-Suit exchanges, as well as other complex structures, ensuring we can tailor the process to your specific needs.

Missing either deadline will disqualify your exchange, making all capital gains immediately taxable. The IRS does not allow extensions — not for weekends, holidays, or unexpected delays. That's why it's critical to work with an experienced QI from day one to stay on track.
