        "text": "Before initiating a 1031 exchange, you should gather several key documents and pieces of information. These include the original purchase agreement for your relinquished property, settlement statements, depreciation schedules, and any records of capital improvements. You'll also need contact information for your qualified intermediary, attorney, and accountant. Having these documents prepared in advance helps ensure a smooth process. Our team can guide you on the necessary property details and market insights to share with your qualified intermediary and tax professional to properly set up the exchange, particularly when considering properties across different counties we serve.",
