We've helped thousands successfully defer taxes while maintaining a ⭐ Perfect 5-Star Record

Our accountant’s recommendation of Deferred.com proved invaluable. Our experience was excellent, and we were particularly impressed with our exchange officer, Michelle Rousseau, who was instrumental in guiding us, thoroughly answering our questions, and providing clear, step-by-step instructions. The process was seamless, and the final result was beyond our expectations.

Customer service was unbelievable, especially because I called two days before closing. They walked me through the process very easily and took care of everything. I was skeptical of a No Fee Exchange but it's more fair for them not to charge a fee compared to other companies who make money off of your money and charge fees. Would 10000% recommend!!!

I’ve worked with someone there three times before, and I returned for my fourth time.  As before, excellent service. I was continually kept informed, and responses were always timely.

"I had a very informative discussion with Daniel before we decided to go with Deferred.com. He answered all my questions and was very helpful. This was my first time doing a 1031 exchange so I researched the process very carefully. Very easy platform to use. All transfers happened on time and without delay. I would definitely use them for doing a 1031 exchange without hassle."

"Knowledgable and attentive to our questions/needs. No fees was not a gimmick. Safety, quality, and service was not sacrificed. Will for sure use Deferred.com again for future exchanges."

We had a fantastic experience working with Dian. We ended up moving up our closing date and that didn’t fluster Dian one bit. Our attorneys were very complimentary of how responsive and easy to work with Dian was. Thank you for the fast and easy 1031 experience, Deferred! I would highly recommend to anyone else looking for a qualified intermediary.

"Dian Cook helped us and she was very professional, responsive, and a good teacher about the process. She worked with all parties, escrow, title, realtors on both sides and was the most helpful of all of the people we worked with. Also, no charge."

“What a great experience. I very much appreciate the outstanding care we saw throughout the process. I always felt as though I received top tier treatment. Vanguard shook up the mutual fund industry back then with their no-load mutual funds and I can see Deferred as being the Vanguard of the 1031 industry.”

What's the CATCH?

Other Qualified Intermediaries keep your interest.

In the 1031 exchange industry, it’s common for intermediaries to hold your money in an interest-bearing account and retain the interest earned on your funds. In a $5 million exchange, interest can exceed $100,000—all of which is typically kept by the intermediary.

This practice costs investors valuable additional income—on top of the exchange fees they already pay.

At Deferred, we’re doing things differently. To start, we’re the only intermediary that offers a No Fee Exchange. We share the interest earned on your funds because it’s your money—and you deserve to benefit from it. Our share of that interest covers our fee, meaning you get the security, support, and expertise of a top-tier intermediary without any hidden costs.

We’re building Deferred on the principles of transparency and equity because you deserve a partner that puts you first—not just in words, but in action. It’s time to redefine the way 1031 exchanges are done. At Deferred, we back our commitment with real value by eliminating fees and helping you earn more. Because when you win, we all do.
