Reverse 1031 Exchanges Are NOT Monsters

I just finished reading an entire message board thread that started with a post by a member of the board that wanted to structure a Reverse 1031 Exchange but was concerned that everyone seemed to call Reverse Exchanges "Monsters."

Reverse 1031 Exchanges NOT Monsters
Now, I've been administering Reverse 1031 Exchanges for many years now, and I can tell you that they are more complicated and absolutely do require more proactive planning compared to regular forward 1031 Exchanges if you want to be successful with your Reverse 1031 Exchange. And, Investors that merely jump into a Reverse Exchange without any planning and good understanding of what is involved is asking for a difficult and challenging Reverse 1031 Exchange. I do not deny any of that.

Powerful 1031 Exchange Strategy
However, when Reverse 1031 Exchanges are used properly and are planned for well in advance, they can be a very powerful strategy in reducing the amount of risk involved with locating, identifying and acquiring suitable replacement property in your 1031 Exchange. I prefer to use the Reverse 1031 Exchange when ever possible so that I can acquire first and not have to worry about whether or not I will be able to acquire my replacement property.

My advice
Just do you homework, ask lots of questions, retain the services of an experienced Reverse 1031 Exchange services provider, make sure that you have a clear picture of what will happen in your Reverse 1031 Exchange, and absolutely do not pick your Reverse 1031 Exchange service provider merely based on fees, or you will be sorry. You definitely get what you pay for in the Reverse 1031 Exchange field. Experience and expertise and priceless for a smooth Reverse 1031 Exchange transaction.

Follow-up Inquiries Re: Reverse 1031 Exchanges

Reverse 1031 Exchanges Gain in Popularity in Current Market

Significant Buying Opportunities
Incredible investment opportunties abound everywhere today. I'm sure that you have seen them, or at the very least heard of them. There are properties that are being sold everyday via a short-sale, via foreclosure (Trustee's Sale) or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or directly by the financial institutions that have already taken the property back via foreclosure (REO Property). The potential long-term return from these investment properties is absolutely astounding. The investment opportunties often already provide positive cash flow.

Cash Is King: But Must Move Fast
The catch is that those who have cash are in control. Cash is King. Investors that have all cash can make offers and move and close on the acquisition of the troubled property quickly. This creates challenges for those that would like to structure a 1031 exchange because you have to move quickly and will generally not have time to sell your existing relinquished property in time to structure a 1031 exchange transaction.

Demand for Reverse 1031 Exchanges
The need to move quickly in the acquisition of short sale properties, foreclosure properties or REO properties has resulted in an unexpected increase in Reverse 1031 Exchange transactions. Investors are identifying tremendous buying opportunities and moving on the acquisitions quickly by acquiring the replacement properties immediately through a Reverse 1031 Exchange.

The Reverse 1031 Exchange allows the investor to move much quicker by taking advantage of the current investment opportunities created by the present real estate market cycle. The investor can buy their replacement properties first and then worry about selling their existing relinquished property within the next 180 calendar days.

We Are Celebrating our 5th Anniversary Today

5th Anniversary of The Exeter Learning Institute Today
We launched The Exeter Learning Institute Blog back on June 23, 2004 in order to provide real estate investors with thoughtful and educational real estate information so that they could make better informed investment decisions. And, we have been blogging ever since.

The 1031 Exchange Institute
We have received so many positive comments from loyal followers over the years that we decided to launch another blog that was specific to 1031 exchange related matters, and was later expanded to include tax-deferred related matters.

The 1031 Exchange Institute was launched on November 14, 2006, which included information, blog posts, and our first discussion board. The 1031 Exchange Institute far exceeded our expectations in terms of visitors, discussions and posts.

We wanted something that was more interactive, though, so we decided to roll out a real estate focused Discussion Board with numerous real estate related Forums.

The Exeter Discussion Board
We launched The Exeter Discussion Board in August 2007. Discussion boards can be very tricky, and most never really take off. But, we were pleasantly surprised when The Exeter Discussion Board far exceeded our expectations. In fact, it just recently surpassed its 1,000th post and 300th registered user.

Thank you for following our blogs.
