Reviewed 2026 · North Dallas · Raven Home Co. ## 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 1. **Pre-sale strategy:** we define your target asset type, sub-market, and yield before you list the relinquished property. 2. **QI introduction:** we connect you with a reputable Qualified Intermediary if you don't already have one. 3. **Replacement shortlist:** we build a vetted list of North Dallas properties so the 45-day identification window is never wasted. 4. **Underwriting & negotiation:** we run the numbers on each candidate and negotiate terms aligned to your exchange. 5. **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. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can a real estate advisor coordinate a 1031 exchange in North Dallas? ### What are the 1031 exchange deadlines? ### Do I need a Qualified Intermediary for a 1031 exchange? ### What qualifies as 'like-kind' property in Texas? ### How does North Dallas help a 1031 exchange succeed? ## Related Investor Guides - [North Dallas Rental ROI & Appreciation Guide →](/guides/north-dallas-rental-roi) - [What a North Dallas Real Estate Advisor Does for Investors →](/north-dallas-real-estate-advisor) - [North Dallas Advisor Fee Structures →](/north-dallas-advisor-fees) - [Investor Services →](/services/invest) ## Work With a North Dallas Advisor Raven Home Co. advises investors and luxury buyers across Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Prosper, and the Platinum Corridor.
