Real estate doesn’t always operate Monday through Friday. Neither do we.

Your Client Is Still Your Client

Referring a client to a Qualified Intermediary shouldn’t mean losing control of the relationship.

We work alongside Realtors, brokers, escrow officers, title professionals, attorneys, CPAs, lenders and other members of your client’s transaction team.

Our role is specific: facilitate the 1031 exchange and help keep the exchange process organized and moving forward.

We don’t sell real estate. We help your client exchange it.

When Should You Introduce Your Client to a Qualified Intermediary?

Ideally, before the relinquished property closes.

A Qualified Intermediary generally needs to be involved before the seller receives or has constructive receipt of the proceeds from the relinquished property.

If your listing agreement, purchase contract or client conversation includes the words “1031 exchange,” that’s a good time to introduce us.

Your client doesn’t need to have identified their replacement property before talking with us.

Starting the conversation early gives everyone more time to understand the exchange structure, responsibilities and critical deadlines.

When Should You Introduce Your Client to a Qualified Intermediary?

The Two Deadlines Every Realtor Should Know

Timing is one of the most important parts of a 1031 exchange.

45 Days

The exchanger generally has 45 calendar days after the transfer of the relinquished property to identify potential replacement property in writing in accordance with applicable 1031 requirements.

180 Days

The exchanger generally has 180 calendar days after the transfer of the relinquished property to complete the acquisition of the replacement property, subject to applicable tax-return filing deadlines and extension rules.

These periods generally run concurrently.

That means the 180-day period doesn’t begin after the 45-day identification period ends.

The clock starts when the relinquished property is transferred.

Because individual circumstances can affect an exchange, clients should consult their tax and legal advisors regarding their specific situation.

How the 1031 Exchange Process Works

Introduce Your Client

Complete our Refer a Client form or call our exchange team. We’ll make the process easy for both you and your client.

We Discuss the Exchange

We’ll speak with your client about the potential exchange, explain our role as Qualified Intermediary, gather the information necessary to establish the exchange, and coordinate with the appropriate transaction professionals.

Relinquished Property Closes

The exchange is structured before closing, and the exchange proceeds are transferred to the Qualified Intermediary rather than being received directly by the exchanger.

45-Day Identification Period

Your client identifies potential replacement property in accordance with applicable 1031 identification requirements. This is where you, as their real estate professional, can play an especially important role.

Replacement Property Closes

We coordinate the Qualified Intermediary portion of the replacement-property transaction and the release of exchange proceeds in accordance with the exchange documents.

Exchange Completed

Once the replacement-property transaction and exchange requirements are completed, we provide the appropriate exchange documentation for your client’s records and tax professionals.

More Than Standard Forward Exchanges

Not every exchange is straightforward. 1031 Exchange Network can assist with:

  • Forward 1031 Exchanges
    Sell first and acquire replacement property afterward.
  • Reverse 1031 Exchanges
    Acquire the replacement property before completing the sale of the relinquished property.
  • Build-to-Suit / Improvement Exchanges
    Use exchange proceeds toward qualifying improvements to replacement property within the exchange structure.
  • Multiple-Property Exchanges
    Exchange one property for multiple replacement properties or multiple relinquished properties into another investment structure, subject to applicable requirements.
  • Complex 1031 Exchanges
    When the transaction doesn’t fit neatly into a standard exchange, contact us early so we can discuss the situation with the client and their advisors.

1031 Exchange FAQs for Realtors

A Qualified Intermediary, often called a QI, is an independent party that facilitates a 1031 exchange by entering into the appropriate exchange agreement, receiving and holding exchange proceeds, and coordinating the transfer of those proceeds as part of the replacement-property transaction.

As early as possible and generally before the relinquished property closes. If a seller tells you they’re considering a 1031 exchange, that is an excellent time to make the introduction.

Not necessarily. In a typical delayed exchange, the replacement property is identified after the relinquished property transfers, subject to the applicable identification rules and deadlines.

Generally, potential replacement property must be properly identified within 45 calendar days after the transfer of the relinquished property.

Generally, the replacement property must be acquired within 180 calendar days following the transfer of the relinquished property, subject to applicable tax-return filing deadlines and extension rules.

Potentially, yes. The Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulations provide identification rules that can permit multiple replacement properties. The appropriate structure depends upon the transaction.

A reverse exchange may be an option when replacement property needs to be acquired before the relinquished property is sold. Reverse exchanges are more complex and should be discussed with the Qualified Intermediary and the client’s tax and legal advisors as early as possible.

Absolutely. We regularly coordinate with the professionals involved in a client’s transaction. Clients should rely on their own tax and legal advisors for individualized tax and legal advice.

No. We’re happy to have an initial conversation and answer questions about our Qualified Intermediary services without obligation.

Absolutely. We want to be a resource for real estate professionals. If you’re working on a transaction and something doesn’t look straightforward, contact us as early as possible.
