Experience matters, especially when pursuing a real estate investment using a 1031 exchange. Believe me, I’ve seen a lot of well-intentioned investors make costly and disheartening mistakes.

As licensed investment advisor, I have regulatory experience with securitized investments
As a 1031 advisor, I have comprehensive knowledge of 1031 exchange rules and procedures
