1031 Investment Objectives Questionnaire

The purpose of this questionnaire is to assist you in locating a suitable replacement or investment property. In this seller’s market, it is important to have clarity in order to move quickly and not waste time showing you property that doesn’t meet your needs or wants.

When we locate a property meeting your criteria, the first step is to present the seller with a non-binding letter-of-intent (“LOI”), which outlines the important terms to be included in the Purchase and sale Agreement (“PSA”). Typically, the LOI requires a PSA to be prepared and signed within 10 calendar days from the execution of the LOI. The usual due diligence period is 30 days following the execution of the PSA.
