Fund handling

Getting-started: all funds in segregated, individually held accounts; never commingled; taxpayer is the dedicated account beneficiary; separate account under the taxpayer’s Social Security number. Same page: segregated accounts at an “FDC insured bank” — quoted as published (likely an FDIC typo; not upgraded here). Homepage and introduction: master/sub-escrow account for each taxpayer; each taxpayer gets an account in their own name. Dual-signature / QEA wire control is not on the pages cited.

Fee structure

Getting-started: transparent lump-sum fee communicated from the onset; no hidden wiring, administrative, or ‘bogus’ fees. No public dollar card.

Who it is for

Nationwide simultaneous, delayed, reverse, and build-to-suit / improvement 1031 exchangers who want an attorney-founded QI. Legal name on the homepage: Capital 1031 Exchange Company, LLC. Founder: Steven D. Rothberg, Esquire (introduction page). Main office: 960 Holmdel Road, Suite 2-02, Holmdel, NJ 07733; also 1327-29 N. Front Street, Philadelphia, PA, and 6425 Living Place Suite 200, Pittsburgh, PA 15206; 800-976-1031; info@Capital1031.com. DST-as-replacement QI work is not on the pages cited.

Verdict

Attorney-led New Jersey QI with a usable segregation sentence (master/sub-escrow, own-name / SSN accounts, not commingled) and real reverse depth — front-leg and back-leg QEAA / EAT copy that names Capital 1031 Exchange Company, LLC as the QI. Gallagher E&O is named; the dollar limit is not. Fidelity-bond dollars, company FEA, CES® names, and dual-signature wire control are not on the pages cited. Those are diligence items, not hidden zeros. This is QI custody, not a securities offering. Ask for today’s certificate, the live account title, and a written lump-sum quote before a large wire.

Notes

This is a QI custody file, not a securities offering. The homepage legal name is Capital 1031 Exchange Company, LLC. Confirm that name on the exchange agreement.

Introduction page: established by real estate attorneys. Founder Steven D. Rothberg, Esquire, “began performing 1031 exchanges during his tenure as counsel for a fortune 1000 company” and later opened a firm dedicated solely to 1031 exchanges. No parent company or ticker is printed. Independent / unpublished.

Homepage exchange types: Simultaneous; Delayed; “Build-To-Suite” (their spelling) / build-to-suit; Reverse (two types). Reverse page: front-leg (relinquished parked) and rear/back-leg (replacement parked), QEAA, EAT, and Capital 1031 Exchange Company, LLC as Qualified Intermediary. Reverse and improvement are therefore yes. Homepage FAQ: partnership interests and REIT shares are not like-kind real property. That is education, not a DST-as-replacement QI menu, so DST stays unknown.

Getting-started Protecting Your Funds: E&O with Gallagher Insurance; dollar limit unpublished. Individually held, segregated, never commingled; taxpayer is the dedicated beneficiary; separate account under the taxpayer’s Social Security number at an “FDC insured bank.” The letters are quoted as the page prints them. Do not treat that as a verified FDIC program or a named depository.

Homepage and introduction repeat master/sub-escrow, own-name accounts. Dual-signature, qualified escrow/trust, company FEA membership, and CES® holders are not on the four pages cited.

Fee sentence is lump-sum and “transparent,” with no published dollars. Float / who keeps interest is unpublished.
