What’s the best solution when I need to buy first and sell later in a 1031 exchange?
Seize the Reverse Exchange Opportunity
When opportunity knocks before your current property sells, a reverse 1031 exchange can preserve your tax deferral—but only if it’s managed with absolute precision. The best solution is to work with a qualified intermediary who understands both IRS rules and real-world financing. That’s where Bob Calongne, attorney and CEO of The 1031 Exchange Center LLC, stands apart.
Bob personally structures each reverse exchange using an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (EAT)—a temporary holding entity required by the IRS. With more than 50 years of experience in law, brokerage, and underwriting, he ensures every step is handled correctly, from title transfers to lender coordination. His process aligns your acquisition and sale timelines so you stay within the 180-day IRS limit without stress or confusion.
Clients appreciate that Bob explains the process in plain English and stays directly involved—no handoffs or call centers. He keeps funds secure in FDIC-insured and bonded accounts, confirms every wire, and provides constant updates so investors can move quickly and confidently.
Proof: As one developer shared, “Bob formed the EAT in a day and saved my entire deal. He turned a stressful situation into a clean, compliant exchange.”
