What are Managed Services?
Managed Services facilitate back-office processing, administration, reporting, tracking and funds management for 1031
exchanges. Managed Services leverage Exchange Manager Pro, a proprietary, online, secured application, and a team of exchange professionals, freeing Exchange Facilitators to consult and communicate with clientele and grow their exchange businesses.What is an Exchange Facilitator?
An Exchange Facilitator is an independent consultant and the main point of contact with exchangers regarding 1031 exchanges in the marketplace. Often, qualified intermediaries (QI) wish to focus their attention and resources on growing their businesses rather than processing exchanges. When administering exchanges through Exchange Manager Pro, the Exchange Facilitator will not be the QI on the exchange but will have access to the application as the exchange lead.
Can I be an Exchange Facilitator?
Exchange Facilitators are FEA members well-versed in Section 1031 of the
and the rules and regulations surrounding like-kind exchanges, including:- Boutique qualified intermediaries who manage between five and 30 exchanges each month.
- Attorneys, accountants and banks who accommodate 1031 exchanges as an additional service.
- New entrants into the 1031 industry who have a network and practice focused around potential exchangers but may lack experience, resources or background to offer a full suite of QI services.
