What is 1031Access?

We understand that the security of your funds is your primary concern. It's ours as well. This is one of the reasons we put each client's money in a separate account.

And we know that you have questions about this money: "have we received your funds yet?" "How much interest has the account earned?" "Did the earnest money check for the new property get sent?" 1031Access will let you view your account to find the answers to these and all your other questions.

And because you are busy, you can access your account, online from your computer, 24 hours a day.

First of all, I want to thank you again for the EXPERT service you provided during our exchange last year. You explained everything accurately and factually and there were no surprises. And the TaxPak I received will be very helpful.

Whenever a question or apparent problem arose during the exchange, it was answered and solved quickly and accurately and with only one call. Response time was immediate and this was of utmost importance since mine was a reverse exchange and the timing was critical.

Sincerely,

W. Heston

The Risk of Commingled Accounts...

If your Qualified Intermediary pools all of its clients' exchange funds into a single, or "commingled" account, those funds are at risk for a variety of reasons.

Since your funds are held in a commingled account, you cannot trace or earmark your particular proceeds. Rather, they are legally considered funds belonging to the QI, meaning that your funds could be attacked by creditors of the QI in the event of a collection action, or if the QI files for bankruptcy. Your funds could also be at risk if legal or regulatory action is taken against any of the QI's other clients, since there is no separation of your funds from theirs.

A commingled account also makes it easier for a QI to use your funds for its own purposes. Dangerous practices like investing client funds for the QI's personal benefit are not unheard of (see our Article discussing an example of this). You are also at higher risk of losing your funds to accounting error or embezzlement.

The Good News About Segregated Accounts...

Funds held in separate, or segregated accounts are protected from the risks listed to the left. Since your funds are clearly traceable to you, they are protected from attacks of creditors or of a bankruptcy estate. The likelihood of conversion or embezzlement of your funds is drastically reduced.

This is why we, The Experts, proudly establish a segregated account for every exchange we do. We always have. It's more work for us to do this, but it's safer for you. And with 1031Access, you can keep your eye on your money and be sure that we are holding your funds safely.

No other QI in the 1031 industry offers this kind of service, or the peace of mind that comes with it.

Read more about the dangers of commingled accounts in the February 18, 2004 edition of The Colorado Real Estate Journal in our column titled, "EXCHANGER BEWARE..." by Gary Gorman.

1031Access is an exclusive service of The Experts and is not available with any other exchange company.
 
 

1031Access makes me feel more confident in the safety of my account, and more confident of your professionalism.
