1031 Exchange Qualified Intermediary in Tampa Bay Area

[Tim Little]

Hey BP, I am working on my first 1031 Exchange for a duplex I own in Richmond, VA. I understand it may not be necessary to work with a local qualified intermediary, because this is my first 1031, I would like to work with them face-to-face. I also know there are few requirements to actually become a QI and little oversight, so I want to make sure I conduct good due-diligence up front.

Any recommendations for QIs you have worked with on completing a 1031 exchange, especially in the Tampa Bay area would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance BP community!

Respectfully,

Tim
