The short answer
Yes — Raven Home Co. can coordinate a 1031 exchange and replacement-property purchase in North Dallas. We handle the property side: sourcing, underwriting, negotiating, and closing replacement assets in Plano, Frisco, McKinney, and Prosper, while working in lockstep with your Qualified Intermediary (who holds the funds) and your CPA (who confirms tax treatment). The exchange is governed by two strict deadlines — 45 days to identify and 180 days to close — so we shortlist replacement property before your sale closes.
The IRS 1031 timeline
Day 0
Close the sale
Your relinquished property closes. Proceeds go straight to your Qualified Intermediary (QI) — never to you, or the exchange is disqualified.
Days 1–45
45-day identification window
You must identify replacement property in writing. We have target North Dallas properties shortlisted before closing so the clock is never wasted.
Days 46–180
180-day closing window
You must close on the replacement property within 180 days of the original sale (or your tax-return due date, whichever is earlier).
Who does what in the exchange
| Role | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| Raven Home Co. (Advisor / Broker) | Sourcing and underwriting replacement properties, off-market access, negotiation, due diligence, and closing coordination in North Dallas. |
| Qualified Intermediary (QI) | Holds the sale proceeds, prepares exchange documents, and ensures IRS compliance. Required — you cannot touch the funds. |
| CPA / Tax Advisor | Confirms deferral eligibility, basis, and depreciation recapture exposure for your specific return. |
| Title & Escrow | Handles closings and assignment of the exchange agreement on both legs. |
How Raven Home Co. coordinates your exchange

- Closing coordination: we manage diligence, title, and timing so you close inside the 180-day window.
Note: Raven Home Co. is a real estate advisory, not a Qualified Intermediary, tax, or legal firm. Always confirm tax treatment with your CPA and use a licensed QI.
