How This Helps You
Using this Self-Assessment Kit, you can complete a full compliance and operational review of your Special Use Property exchange strategy or Qualified Intermediary programme in under four hours. Each of the 1179 requirements is tied directly to IRS compliance obligations, fiduciary duties, or transactional best practices, so you’re not guessing what matters. Without this level of rigour, you risk structuring disqualified exchanges, selecting non-compliant Intermediaries, or failing to substantiate business purpose, all of which can result in immediate tax liabilities, penalties, and reputational damage. By implementing this assessment, you gain documented proof of due diligence, reduce reliance on costly consultants, and strengthen your position during IRS audits or investor reviews. The result? Faster, more confident decision-making, reduced regulatory risk, and sustained eligibility for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031.
