​

Sterling Land Title Agency serves as a Qualified Intermediary for clients seeking to defer capital gains taxes through a 1031 Exchange. Whether you're selling investment or business-use real estate and reinvesting in a like-kind property, our team guides you through every step of the process — from structuring the exchange to holding funds in escrow and ensuring compliance with IRS timelines and requirements.

 

We handle both standard (delayed) and reverse 1031 exchanges:

 

Standard Exchanges — For clients selling their relinquished property first and identifying a replacement property within the required 45-day identification window and 180-day exchange period, we manage the exchange funds and documentation to keep your transaction on track and IRS-compliant.

 

Reverse Exchanges — When you need to acquire your replacement property before selling your relinquished property, we structure the exchange through an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (EAT), allowing you to secure the new property while maintaining flexibility on the sale of your existing one.

 

With deep experience in title, escrow, and real estate transactions, Sterling Land Title Agency brings the precision and reliability you need to complete a successful 1031 Exchange — protecting your investment and maximizing your tax-deferral strategy.
