Why Investors Choose NexTrend Securities
Focused Investment Approach
We specialize in 1031 DST real estate investments. We evaluate private-placement offerings across a range of sponsors and property types based on each investor’s objectives and circumstances.
Independent by Design
We are not tied to any single DST sponsor, marketing organization, or outside entity, and we do not create offerings of our own. This independence helps reduce potential or perceived conflicts of interest.
Our Approach to Due Diligence
We have never sold a 1031 DST offering without a Due Diligence Legal Opinion. We review the offering documents and conduct our own analysis. In many cases we also visit the properties, and you can too.
Hands-On, Personal Service
From identifying replacement properties to meeting your 45-day and 180-day deadlines, we work with you throughout the exchange process. We explain, answer questions, and help you evaluate your options.
Considering a 1031 exchange?
The sooner we talk, the more time you have to plan.
The 1031 process
Sell Your Property
Make sure your sale contract includes 1031 exchange cooperation language, and engage a qualified intermediary before the sale closes.
Qualified Intermediary
At closing, your qualified intermediary receives and holds the sale proceeds so you do not take constructive receipt of the funds.
Review & Identify
NexTrend helps you evaluate available DST offerings across a range of sponsors and identify your replacement property within the 45-day deadline.
1031 DST Closing
Once you select your replacement property, NexTrend works with the DST sponsor and your qualified intermediary to close within the 180-day deadline.
Free 1031 calculators — no registration required.
Meeting the dates is only one requirement — a full deferral also means replacing the equity, the debt and the value. We run the deadline, leverage and replacement calculators on every exchange.
