One Place to Begin
The plan should connect the relinquished-property sale, the exchange calendar, the independent professionals and the replacement-property decision. It should not begin and end with an identification form.
Start with the sale, equity, debt, timing and ownership goals—not an isolated rule or form.
Connect with an independent qualified intermediary before relinquished-property proceeds reach the seller.
Compare direct, net-lease and passive candidates in Maryland and nationwide markets.
Organize the ownership and sale facts that need review by the owner’s CPA and attorney.
Discuss a preferred replacement that appears early or a sale whose deadline is already moving.

Passive Replacement Options
A 1031 exchange does not have to lead to another renovation, tenant issue or building that depends on the owner every day. Eligible investors can compare professionally managed DST properties alongside direct and net-lease real estate.
DST interests are securities and may be illiquid. Availability, projected income, sponsor, property, fees, leverage, investor eligibility and suitability vary and require review through an appropriately licensed securities professional.
How the Exchange Moves Forward
Clarify ownership, qualifying use, expected equity, debt and what the owner wants to change after the sale.
Engage the independent qualified intermediary and align the contract, closing instructions and exchange calendar.
Evaluate primary and backup properties for income, control, workload, risk, financing and closing probability.
Keep the intermediary, closing team, lenders and advisors aligned as title, diligence and funding move forward.
Talk through what happens next before the property closes.
