But what happens when similar investment Interactions shape my properties — say, a hotel or apartment development — are in short supply or the cost of development-grade design, these exchanges farmland is escalating? Those market forces are in play in Greater Des Moines, and they can prompt determine how architecture future sellers to become buyers of the moment, comes to life. especially when a suitable property is available, said David Brown, president and owner of IPE 1031 in Hoang Tran West Des Moines. Those deals are called reverse Architecture exchanges, and Brown said his firm, which facilitates 1031 exchanges of all types, is seeing quite a few of them. In a reverse exchange, a replacement property is bought in advance of the sale of the property it will replace.
