1031 Exchange

1031 exchange replacement properties, ready to close

You have 45 days to identify and 180 to close. No extensions, weekends included. Lineage keeps pre-screened, cash-flowing replacement properties on the marketplace with financing, insurance, and title coordinated, closing in as few as 13 days.

The clock

The deadline is the whole problem

You sold a property. The clock is running. You have 45 days to identify your replacement and 180 days to close. No extensions, no exceptions, weekends and holidays included. An estimated 8–10% of 1031 exchanges fail. Most of those failures come down to one thing: the replacement deal fell apart and there wasn't enough time to recover.

Even if you're down to the final days of your identification window, call us. We've closed exchanges that started with less than a week on the clock. Lineage is built to compress that risk.

How we close on time

Why exchanges fail, and how this one won't

Inventory is already on the marketplace

You're not starting a property search on day 1 of your 45-day window. Pre-screened properties with full pro formas, across multiple markets, ready to close.

DSCR lending approves in 3 business days

Qualifies on the property's rental income, not yours. No W-2s, no personal income documentation. Underwriting isn't the bottleneck.

Everything closes in parallel

Lending, insurance, and title move simultaneously. We close in as few as 13 days versus the industry standard of 30–45. On a 180-day clock those extra weeks matter.

Your accommodator has seen us close

We work directly with qualified intermediaries. Your QI handles fund disbursement, we handle the acquisition.

Debt matching and the 200% rule

If your exchange requires debt matching to avoid mortgage boot, DSCR lending is structured to meet or exceed the relinquished property's debt. Your consultant helps you build the backup list so you're never one failed deal away from a tax bill; your QI documents the identification.

Wherever you are

Where you are on the clock

Just closed your sale.

You're in the strongest position. Match inventory in days, identify well before Day 45, and close with 150+ days of cushion. Most of our exchange investors are done before the identification deadline most people are still sweating.

Mid-window, deal just fell through.

This is the most common call we get, and it's fixable. Marketplace inventory is already inspected and underwritten, so re-identifying doesn't restart your diligence from zero. Your consultant helps you line up backups so one failure can't sink the exchange again.

Final days.

Call anyway. We've closed exchanges that started with less than a week on the identification clock. No promises until we see the numbers, but the machine is built for exactly this.

Mortgage boot

The boot problem, handled

If your replacement debt falls short of the debt you retired, the difference is taxable. That's mortgage boot, and it quietly wrecks otherwise clean exchanges. DSCR financing is structured to meet or exceed the relinquished property's debt, and your consultant runs that math before you identify, not at closing.

FAQ

1031 exchange questions

As few as 13 days from contract, about 22 on average, because lending, insurance, and title run in parallel. The industry norm of 30 to 45 days is where 180-day clocks go to die.

Yes, and you should. Most investors use the three-property rule or the 200% rule: identify multiple candidates as long as their combined value stays within 200% of what you sold. Because Lineage inventory is pre-negotiated and pre-underwritten, deals rarely fall through, so the 200% cap is room to work in, not a constraint. And if your exchange calls for identifying beyond it, the 95% exception — close on at least 95% of the total value you identify — is normally considered too risky to use. With pre-negotiated terms and closings that run in parallel, it's attainable here: identifying five properties and closing all five is a plan, not a gamble. Your consultant builds the list with you; your QI documents the identification.

Yes. Your QI handles the funds, we handle the acquisition. Our team coordinates directly with intermediaries and has done it under tight clocks.

Call. Marketplace properties are pre-inspected and pre-underwritten, which compresses the timeline where exchanges usually stall. We've closed exchanges that started with under a week left to identify.

No. We execute the acquisition and coordinate with your tax advisor and QI. The exchange structure itself is between you, your advisor, and your intermediary.

Lineage does not provide tax or legal advice. 1031 exchanges have strict requirements, so work with a qualified intermediary and your tax advisor.

The clock doesn't pause. We don't either.
