Reverse Exchange

In a Reverse Exchange, Replacement property is acquired before the Relinquished property is sold. Guardian Exchange Services serves as a Qualified Intermediary and creates an Exchange Accommodation Title Holder (EAT) to take title to the Replacement property before the sale of the Relinquished Property. The Reverse Exchanger then has 45 days to identify Relinquished Property to be sold to effectuate the 1031 Exchange. The Replacement Property is transferred to Exchanger upon sale of the Relinquished Property, which must be completed within 180 days of purchase of the Replacement Property.
