Repsie planning one-pager
Your 1031 exchange planning checklist
Organize the facts before a sale or while an exchange is in progress. If a deadline may be close, contact your qualified intermediary directly rather than waiting for follow-up.
Great strategy fit
- Have the intermediary verify the structure, deadlines, and written identification.
- Underwrite replacement properties and financing before committing.
- Coordinate the closing and reporting plan with your tax advisor.
Potential strategy fit
- Resolve the sale date, proceeds control, and intermediary setup first.
- Distinguish a shopping shortlist from valid written identification.
- Get specialist advice for reverse exchanges or inconsistent timing facts.
Lower fit right now
- Have an advisor confirm whether an actual deadline or proceeds problem prevents this exchange.
- Do not assume a late intermediary appointment or another strategy repairs a failed requirement.
- Plan for the sale proceeds, potential tax liability, and a better-structured future transaction.
Bring to your conversation
- Sale contract and exact closing/transfer date
- Exchange agreement, intermediary details, and proceeds history
- Written identification, replacement candidates, and tax-return due date
