A simultaneous exchange occurs when the relinquished property and the replacement property close on the same day. While this is the simplest exchange structure conceptually, it requires precise coordination between all parties — buyers, sellers, lenders, title companies, and the qualified intermediary.
How a Simultaneous Exchange Works
In a simultaneous exchange, you sell your relinquished property and close on your replacement property on the same day. The qualified intermediary coordinates the transfer of funds between both closings to ensure the exchange is properly structured and IRS-compliant.
- Both properties close on the same day
- QI coordinates fund transfers between closings
- No 45-day identification period required
- Requires all parties to be ready simultaneously
Challenges and Coordination
The main challenge of a simultaneous exchange is coordinating all parties to close on the same day. Lender delays, title issues, or last-minute complications on either property can jeopardize the exchange. Our team works proactively with all parties to ensure everything is in place before closing day.
