One of the most common concerns we hear from potential clients centers around payment for Qualified Intermediary (QI) services. Many investors worry they’ll need to pay substantial upfront fees or face unexpected hourly charges during their 1031 exchange. Let us put your mind at ease by explaining exactly how a qualified intermediary gets paid at WealthBuilder 1031.
The Simple Truth About QI Fees
Here’s the reassuring news: our QI fees are handled as a standard closing expense, appearing right on your settlement sheet. This means you won’t need to worry about writing checks before your transaction or managing complicated payment schedules during your exchange.
Understanding the Process
Think of QI fees like other traditional closing costs such as title insurance or recording fees. They’re simply part of your closing expenses, deducted from the proceeds when your transaction closes. This streamlined approach offers several advantages:
- No upfront out-of-pocket expenses
