testimonials» expert corner Rave Reviews From Satisfied Clients And Professionals IRC §1031 Exchanges are complex, time-sensitive, regulated transactions that require the fulfillment of specific documentation, deadlines and duties. As a Qualified Intermediary, Exchange Authority has been managing all aspects of these transactions successfully for clients since 1991. Just as you trust your financial advisor with your investments and your lawyer with your legal matters, you (and they) can trust Exchange Authority with your IRC §1031 Exchange. There are numerous details involved, and we understand every one. Below are just a few of the rave reviews we have received from clients and  professionals over the years. "The Best Decision I Could Make" “Choosing The Exchange Authority to handle a 1031 transaction was one of the best decisions I could have made. Both John and Tim are extraordinarily knowledgeable, extremely helpful, and willing to answer the myriad questions of a client who brought a research approach to a new undertaking. They always return phone calls promptly, are on top of all aspects of a transaction, and are infallibly polite and respectful—something that professional women can really appreciate. They are also creative problem solvers: when things get “stuck” they come up with suggestions and contacts to get a transaction back on track.  Moreover, for those doing a 1031 for the first time, the initial brochure is an excellent introduction to the subject; and the extensive tax document that follows the transaction will be appreciated by client and accountant alike. The Exchange Authority provides value for money—no doubt about it. I wouldn’t use any other firm.” K.Sapsin-Fine PhD "A Breath of Fresh Air" "I would like to thank you for making the exchange a success.  From the sale of the condo to the purchase of the cottage, the work you did was flawless.  It took a great deal of pressure off our minds as the proccess unfolded.  You were the breath of fresh air we needed.  Your sense of humor and good-natured approach was greatly appreciated.  Be assured that if we ever choose to go through another exchange, we will certainly ask for your services again and would recommend you and your services to our friends." Sincerely, Bill & Siobhan "You made the transition very easy with your professionalism and kind demeanor.  We look forward to doing business with you again." Sincerely, D.& L. Stead "We just recieved the complete report and are amazed at the professionalism of your group. Thank you very much!" Kind regards, Z & C Ilic "Incredible Documentation" “The book that documents the activity of the transaction is incredible!  After my exchange, the documentation allowed me to review the transaction, understand what had taken place and explain it to my accountant.” S.Stoffregen "Straightforward And Cost Effective" "Thank you for sending me the most recent volume of your newsletter.  I found it to be helpful and informative and appreciate being on your mailing list.  [Over the years] I have looked at various other proposals by qualified intermediaries and believe that your services are far more straightforward and cost effective than any of the competition that I have seen." Very truly yours, Fredrick G. Cleveland, McKee, Giuliani & Cleveland "Responsive, Practical, Effective" "I want to express my sincere thanks for your very professional, efficient and prompt services.  Your expertise and responsiveness enabled this transaction to go forward efficiently with both attorney's offices and made the exchange both practical and effective.  It will be a pleasure to recommend your services to others" Yours, R. Shapiro, M.D. "I just want to take a moment to thank you for the outstanding advice and service we received from you.  From our initial contact with your company to the receipt of our check, we were deeply impressed with your knowledge, professionalism and attentive service.  Even our lawyer, who deals with 1031 exchanges on a regular basis , was amazed at the level of attention your gave to our exchange and the prompt responses we received to all questions and concerns.  I will absolutely recommend your company to any one interested in a 1031 exchange, and would not hesitate to use your services again myself.  Thank you!" Sincerely, W.Schor-Haim "Thanks for your collective honesty and competence in arranging the exchange of properties for me.  Especially, I owe all of you my personal thanks for your patience in explaining the procedures of the process to me, a person who has had no prior experience in  such matters."  R.Johnson "Superb Work" "I'm looking at the bound complete report of our exchange sent to us earlier by Tim---the frosting on the cake, so to speak.  A simple "thank you" for the superb work accomplished by you and your colleagues seems entirely inadequate.  I don't think I have ever had the pleasure and privilege of working with a more professional, competent and thorough group than Exchange Authority.  You folks are the best!  I appreciate that I had the opportunity to work with you."  Best wishes, P. W. Stern "You folks did an outstanding job and I have already refered you to two other people with possible exchanges." Sincerely, Ray "Effective And Efficient" As an accountant I fully understand the tax laws so it is nice to work with a company that can act on my clients behalf to effectively and efficiently save them money.” James DeBiasi, CPA "Always Get The Work Done" "What I value most about working with Exchange Authority is that they always get the work done and there are never any problems.  They are very professional and up front with people so you always understand what is happening with your exchange.” Mike Grandmaison, CPA "Very Responsive" "Exchange Authority is very responsive.  They always return calls right away, they are easy to work with and they understand what they are doing.” Shawn Egan, Esq.
