Review Reverse 1031 Exchange with Qualified Intermediary

  • If the current relinquished property is held in the name of a legal entity (i.e. a limited liability company, general or limited partnership, corporation, trust, etc.) other than your individual name, provide the full legal name of the legal entity, complete list of authorized signers on behalf of the legal entity (include a sample signature block), and its federal taxpayer identification number for the legal entity, and any other information that might be relevant.  Provide copies of its formation documents including the Certification from the Secretary of State.

Documents and Agreements Needed for Processing and Closing

Exeter Reverse 1031 Exchange Services, LLC will prepare all of the necessary Reverse 1031 Exchange agreements and documents on the same day that the required information is received, will order the formation of your new limited liability company (LLC) and work with the escrow or closing agent to determine what else will be necessary in order to safely complete your Reverse 1031 Exchange transaction.

  • Purchase and Sale Agreement for the acquisition of the like-kind replacement property, and for the disposition (sale) of the relinquished property, if it is already under contract.

  • Phase I Environmental Site Assessment and Inspection Report to determine whether there has been any environmental contamination of the property.  This report is required if the property is zoned commercial, office, industrial, retail, agricultural, vacant land, or multi-family consisting of ten units or more.  The final Phase I Environment Site Assessment and Inspection Report must be provided to the closing officer/agent and reviewed by Exeter Reverse 1031 Exchange Services prior to closing.
