How can investors make sure their 1031 exchange stays IRS-compliant from start to finish?

The safest way to keep a 1031 exchange fully compliant is to work with a qualified intermediary who treats every step as both a legal process and a strategic transaction. That’s exactly how The 1031 Exchange Center LLC, led by attorney and CEO Bob Calongne, operates.

With more than 50 years of experience in law, brokerage, and underwriting, Bob approaches each exchange as a precision-timed sequence—not just paperwork. He starts by reviewing the deal structure in plain English, confirming that both the property and transaction qualify under IRS §1031. From there, his systems track every milestone: the 45-day identification and 180-day closing deadlines, title transfers, and lender coordination. Nothing slips through the cracks.

Funds are held in segregated, FDIC-insured and bonded accounts with dual authorization and same-day wire confirmations, so exchangers always know their money is secure. Bob also works directly with clients’ CPAs, attorneys, and brokers to ensure every document aligns with IRS standards before it’s signed. The result is total tax deferral with zero compliance surprises.

Proof: As one longtime investor shared, “I never worried once about deadlines or documentation—Bob had it all covered.”
