Qualified Intermediary Services built for speed, compliance, and clarity.
From standard forward exchanges to complex structures, we coordinate the exchange, deliver the documents, and keep timelines on track so you can focus on the deal.
Core QI Services
Forward 1031 Exchange
We handle the full exchange workflow for a traditional sale then purchase structure. That includes opening the exchange, preparing the exchange agreement package, coordinating with escrow and closing teams, receiving proceeds, and wiring funds for the replacement purchase. We also keep a timeline checklist so you know exactly what is due and when.
Includes
• Exchange setup and onboarding
• Exchange agreement package
• Closing coordination with title and escrow
• Receipt and safeguarding of proceeds
• Funds disbursement for replacement closing
• Exchange summary and documentation delivery
Closing Coordination and Document Prep
We coordinate directly with your title company, escrow officer, attorney, Realtor, and lender so documents are correct before closing day. This reduces last minute delays and prevents common 1031 errors like incorrect vesting, missing assignment language, or wrong payee instructions.
Best for investors who want fewer surprises at the closing table and a clean paper trail
Exchange Proceeds Handling
As your Qualified Intermediary, we receive and hold exchange proceeds in compliance with 1031 requirements and your exchange agreement. We provide clear wire instructions, confirmation notices, and a record of deposits and disbursements.
What you get
• Clear funding steps and wire verification process
• Segregation options depending on exchange structure
• Audit friendly reporting and confirmations
Timeline and Compliance Management
A 1031 is a deadline driven transaction. We help you stay compliant with the 45 day identification window and the 180 day exchange period, plus the documentation and notice requirements that come with a proper exchange.
What we track
• Key dates, deliverables, and signatures
• Identification formatting and submission rules
• Replacement closing readiness and funding timing
Specialty Exchanges
Reverse Exchange
Need to acquire first and sell later. We support reverse exchange structures where timing and documentation must be handled precisely. We coordinate the structure and guide the closing team through the correct steps so the transaction stays aligned with IRS requirements.
Best for competitive markets where you cannot risk losing the replacement property
Improvement Exchange
If you want to use exchange proceeds to improve the replacement property, we support improvement style structures where value is added during the exchange period. We help coordinate the documentation and milestones so improvements are accounted for correctly.
Best for investors who want to reposition a property immediately after purchase
Multi Property Exchanges
Selling multiple relinquished properties or buying multiple replacement properties can be clean when the tracking is clean. We help keep proceeds, IDs, and closing coordination organized so the exchange does not become a spreadsheet nightmare.
Best for portfolio buyers and sellers, 1031 ladder strategies, and consolidations
DST and TIC Support
When investors use Delaware Statutory Trust or tenant in common interests, the process needs extra coordination with sponsors, subscription deadlines, and funding instructions. We help coordinate the exchange side so your funds land where they need to land on time.
Best for passive 1031 strategies and diversification
Technology and Automation
Digital Intake and Smart Forms
Our intake and forms are designed to reduce back and forth and eliminate missing fields. The result is faster setup, fewer errors, and a smoother closing experience for your team.
Highlights
• Guided questions that adapt to the exchange type
• Auto populated fields across document sets
• Clear status checkpoints for what is complete
Document Portal and E Signature Workflow
Everything lives in one place so clients and closing partners can access the right documents quickly. E signature speeds up execution and reduces last minute scrambling.
What your team sees
• Centralized file access
• Permission based sharing for attorneys and closers
• Time stamped document history
RPA and AI Assisted Operations
We use automation to support document generation, field validation, and workflow routing. That means faster turnaround and fewer human errors on repetitive steps, while keeping human review where it matters.
Value
• Shorter cycle time from intake to documents
• Reduced rework from missing details
• Consistent packaging across every exchange file

Includes
• Identification templates
• Submission confirmation
• Basic rule guidance and formatting checks
CPA and Attorney Coordination
If your tax advisor or attorney wants to review the structure, we make that easy. We provide the documents and timeline details they need to advise you properly, and we coordinate edits when required.
Best for entity changes, partnership questions, or complex portfolios
White Label Support for Brokers and Teams
If you have a brokerage, investor group, or partner channel, we can support a consistent process and branded experience while keeping compliance tight.
Includes
• Partner specific onboarding flow
• Shared checklists for your team

FAQs
How fast can you open an exchange?
Most exchanges can be opened quickly once we have your basic transaction details and the closing contact information. If you are closing soon, tell us your closing date and we prioritize setup.
What do you need from me to get started?
Relinquished property address, estimated closing date, buyer information if available, and the contact info for your escrow or title team. If you have the settlement statement draft, that helps us move faster.
Can I start if I already closed?
If the sale already closed and proceeds were received by you, a 1031 is generally not available because the Qualified Intermediary must be in place before closing. If you are not sure, send the timeline and we will tell you what options remain.
Do you provide tax advice?
We do not provide tax or legal advice. We provide exchange administration, documentation, and coordination, and we work closely with your CPA or attorney.
