Get to know the firm before you choose an exchange team

Review our people's experience and the independent sources below alongside the proposed service agreement. Credentials and business profiles can inform your decision; they do not replace a conversation about your transaction.

View the Better Business Bureau profile for 1031 Strategies & Services Group for the rating, accreditation, and other information BBB currently publishes.

A BBB business rating is separate from a customer-review score. Consult the source rather than treating a rating as a promise about an exchange result.

Professional credentials

Our team directory identifies individual roles, exchange experience, and credentials, including the inactive CPA status noted in Ralph Bunje's biography.

The Federation of Exchange Accommodators explains the experience, examination, and continuing-education framework for its Certified Exchange Specialist program. Contact the issuing organization to confirm an individual's current standing.

Is the Better Business Bureau rating permanent?

No. The Better Business Bureau controls its profile, accreditation, and rating. Review its current profile for the current status.

Does a credential guarantee an exchange result?

No. A credential does not guarantee qualification, timing, tax savings, funds safety, or a transaction result.

How can I verify a team credential?

Use the issuing organization's current verification method. Contact the organization when an online verification method is not available.
