The Process
How a 1031 Exchange Works
Four straightforward steps. We handle the complexity at every stage.
Sell Your Property
List and sell your relinquished property. We set up your exchange before closing.
We Hold the Funds
Sale proceeds are held in FDIC-insured accounts by Pacific1031 as your Qualified Intermediary.
Identify Replacement
You have 45 days to identify up to three replacement properties. We guide you through every rule.
Close & Defer Taxes
Close on your new property within 180 days. Capital gains taxes are deferred — keep building wealth.
Experts in Complex Transactions
Not all 1031 exchanges are straightforward — and that's where our depth of experience matters most.
Reverse Exchanges
Acquire your replacement property before selling your relinquished property — ideal when you find the right deal first.
Simultaneous Exchanges
Close on both the relinquished and replacement properties on the same day with seamless coordination.
Improvement Exchanges
Use exchange funds to build or renovate a replacement property, maximizing the value of your reinvestment.
Eligibility Requirements
Unlike a typical real estate sale, you can defer capital gains tax when you sell an investment property and acquire one of "like kind" — so long as the property is used for business or investment purposes, the exchange completes within 180 days, and it meets IRS regulations.
- We handle deals of any size — $500K–$1M typical, up to $10M+
- We handle deals in all 50 states, including cross-state
- Second homes qualify if rented 14+ days/year and less than 10% personal use
- Properties must be held for business or investment purposes
