Tina Colson-Jones: Welcome to today’s 1031 Fun Fact. Our topic is the role of a qualified intermediary or a QI, such as Equity Advantage. A QI’s role is to properly structure the exchange transaction, prepare the legal exchange documents, and hold the proceeds from the sale during the exchange period. If a seller closes on a transaction and receives constructive receipt of funds from the sale, they have lost the opportunity for tax deferral through the 1031 exchange.
The same holds true if an investor purchases a property in hopes to do a reverse exchange but did not have the exchange in place prior to the replacement property closing. Have a question you would like me to address? Please place it in the comments. Thanks for watching and enjoy your day
