Common questions

Can a gas station qualify for a 1031 exchange?

Real estate generally can, but business value and personal property are treated differently. Structure matters—coordinate early with a QI and CPA.

How do you handle timing risk?

We focus on executable deals, fast diligence, and clear timelines so you can meet identification and closing deadlines.

Do you help find replacement properties?

Yes. We run a criteria-based search and surface both marketed and confidential opportunities when available.

Will sellers accept 1031 timing?

Many will, if the buyer is qualified and the process is well-managed. We set expectations upfront.

What’s the biggest mistake?

Waiting too long to line up the search and diligence team. Start before the first closing if possible.
