What Does Breakwater Capital Do?

For investors considering selling a real estate investment and deferring tax payments on their capital gains, a 1031 exchange could be an option for reinvestment. Understanding the complex guidelines for the 1031 exchange process can be challenging. However, with the right professional services, the process can be more convenient and accessible for any Accredited Investor.

As an investor, you can gain several advantages from finding experts who have the resources and experience to handle your exchange logistics. Working with the professionals can save you time and energy while reducing the potential for stress. When you understand your options for exchanging your investment property holdings according to IRS guidelines, you can confidently move forward.

Know Your Financial Professional

Syndicated real estate is often a new concept to most of our clients and we fully understand that trust needs to be earned. We often get questions like:

  • How do we know who you are?
  • How can we trust you or the companies you work with?
  • How can I verify that the information you are telling me is correct?

We implore our clients to know as much as possible about the people they choose to work with and are proud to be as transparent as possible. Thats why we direct them Broker Check, a tool that our nation’s securities regulatory body provides (FINRA). It allows the public to vet anyone with a securities license. All you have to do is type in the name of the subject and Broker Check will populate everything you would want to know. This could include their work history, licenses and any red flags that you may want to be aware of.
