1031 Exchange Coordinator

Investors Title Exchange Corporation

Chapel Hill, NC (onsite)

Step into a key role at Investors Title Exchange Corporation (ITEC), where you’ll guide real estate investors through 1031 like-kind exchanges and help them navigate complex, high-stakes transactions with confidence. As an Exchange Coordinator, you’ll be the central point of contact from the first conversation to the final closing, making sure details are correct, deadlines are met, and every stakeholder is informed.

Why You’ll Love This Role

• You’ll be the hub of the action, coordinating all the moving parts of 1031 exchanges and seeing the direct impact of your work on client outcomes.
• You’ll build deep expertise in a niche, in-demand area of real estate and tax law that can set you apart in your career.
• You’ll work closely with experienced exchange professionals, attorneys, and real estate advisors.
• You’ll join a culture that values reliability, integrity, and service—where doing things the right way is just as important as doing them quickly.
  
  

What You’ll Do

• Manage 1031 exchange files from initiation through completion—reviewing purchase contracts, preparing customized exchange documents, and coordinating details for properties.
• Partner with closing attorneys, title companies, and settlement agents to ensure all documents are accurate, complete, and delivered on time for smooth closings.
• Track and calculate critical IRS deadlines and proactively communicate key dates to clients and their advisors.
• Maintain organized, audit-ready files and accurate transaction records in internal databases.
• Record deposits, disbursements, fees, and wire transactions, obtain necessary approvals, and reconcile balances to keep financials transparent and precise.
• Prepare transaction summaries and information packets that help clients and stakeholders clearly understand the status and structure of each exchange.
  
  

What We’re Looking For

• 3–5 years of experience in 1031 exchanges, real estate transactions, title/escrow, or a closely related field, with a solid grasp of how deals move from contract to closing.
• An Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree and strong comfort with Microsoft Office and database systems to manage documents, deadlines, and financials.
• Exceptional attention to detail, especially in reviewing contracts, preparing documents, and handling financial calculations and records.
• A disciplined, organized approach to managing multiple files at once while staying ahead of deadlines and follow-ups.
• A client-first mindset and sound judgment, with the ability to solve problems, anticipate issues, and know when to pull in senior team members.
• Bonus points for experience directly coordinating IRC Section 1031 exchanges, working in real estate legal support or closing coordination, knowledge of IRS 1031 regulations, or a Certified Exchange Specialist (CES) designation.
