Need a 1031 replacement property fast?
You sold. The clock started. You have 45 days to identify and 180 days to close. If you are inside a 1031 exchange right now, you do not need another article explaining the rules. You need credit-graded replacement property options you can evaluate before the identification window closes.
Call now: 307‑439‑0410. Day or night. The clock runs nights and weekends. So do we.
Or tell us your deadline and criteria → We respond fast because your timeline does not have slack in it.
The deadline is the whole problem
A 1031 exchange does not usually fail because an investor picked a slightly imperfect property. It fails because the identification window closes before a workable replacement is secured. When that happens, the deferred capital gains and depreciation recapture you were protecting can suddenly come due in full.
Day 45 is a hard IRS wall. It does not move for a holiday, a slow listing broker, a lender delay, or a deal that falls apart in due diligence. Every day spent waiting is a day of available inventory you cannot get back.
Where are you in the 45-day window?
| Timing | What matters now |
|---|---|
| Days 1 to 15 | You still have time to compare tenant credit, lease term, rent bumps, geography, financing, and backup identification strategy. |
| Days 16 to 35 | You need curated replacement options quickly, with enough time to underwrite, tour, finance, and identify alternates. |
| Days 36 to 45 | This is triage. Call now. The priority is identifying closeable options before the window shuts. |
| After identification | If a named property is failing in due diligence, you may need replacement candidates, financing coordination, or a human review of remaining options immediately. |
Why speed should not mean panic
Most buyers fear that moving fast means getting pushed into a bad property. We solve that by focusing on credit-graded NNN options first. Our research process reviews tenant credit, lease structure, cap rate context, location risk, financing fit, and closing probability before a property becomes a serious candidate.
We are not just sending listings
A replacement-property search is not a list of links. It is an underwriting sprint. When we review potential 1031 replacement properties, we look at the pieces that determine whether a deal can actually survive the deadline.
- Tenant credit rating or credit profile
- Lease term, rent bumps, options, and guaranty strength
- Cap rate compared with tenant risk and current market conditions
- Residual real estate value and market depth
- Debt replacement and financing fit
- Closing certainty, title risk, and timing risk
- Backup identification strategy if a preferred deal fails
That is the difference between finding a property and finding an exchange candidate.
What happens when you call
| Step | What we do |
|---|---|
| 1. Tell us your timeline | Your sale date, 45-day identification deadline, 180-day closing deadline, equity, debt replacement need, target geography, and minimum credit or lease standards. |
| 2. We classify the search | We determine whether your path is likely direct ownership NNN, a backup identification search, a financing-sensitive exchange, or a situation that needs another professional review. |
| 3. We curate credit-graded options | We source on-market and off-market NNN replacement properties that fit your criteria, with tenant credit and lease analysis attached. |
| 4. You identify with confidence | You walk into identification with real, underwritten options and enough room to name backups. |
Who this page is for
This page is for investors who are already inside a 1031 exchange, about to close a sale, or trying to avoid a failed identification. It is especially relevant if you want direct ownership NNN real estate instead of being pushed into one sponsor product.
- You sold or are selling an investment property
- You need replacement property options before day 45
- You want tenant credit and lease structure reviewed before you identify
- You need buyer-side representation, not just sponsor inventory
- You want a clear direct-ownership path with human review
If you only need tax advice, legal advice, securities advice, or a qualified intermediary, we can help organize the questions, but you should work directly with the appropriate licensed professional.
We represent you, the buyer, not a sponsor
On many NNN transactions, the listing broker pays the cooperating commission, which means a dedicated buyer’s advocate handling sourcing, underwriting, financing, and closing may cost you no separate fee. There is no charge for the initial conversation.
Because we are not selling one sponsor’s product, we can show you direct-ownership NNN and tell you when another deferral path may fit your situation better. If a property is wrong for your exchange, we say so. Neutrality is the point: our job is to help you get cleanly to the other side of the deadline, not to move a specific building.
Considering selling but not yet inside the 45-day window?
If your property is not listed yet, the urgency is different. You still have time to prepare the exchange before the clock starts. That means pricing the sale correctly, understanding likely replacement-property options, coordinating with your qualified intermediary, and deciding whether direct ownership NNN belongs in the plan.
