My wife and I were searching for a 1031 option after an exhausting journey on trying to purchase a replacement property(s) after selling our self storage facility which we had built and operated for 30 years. Our experience with commercial realtors was disappointing, primarily Realtor incompetence and a general disregard of ethics led us to learning about and then pursuing DST's. We learned of Realized 1031 through of all things a google search. Our phone inquiry to Realized led a conversation with Clay, a very capable young man who gave us an overview of exactly what Realized 1031 did. Being "Doubting Thomases" by nature we invited ourselves to their corporate location in Austin Texas to meet with them and make sure that this was a "real" business entity. Realized 1031 is in fact a "real" entity and an answer to our prayers, literally. Drew and Clay were good listeners and proposed several investment options based on our risk tolerance and expected investment returns. Their proposals and recommendations were thoughtfully laid out for us along with the necessary disclosures. No high pressure sale pitch, just presenting their DST materials and associated sponsors in plain English. They did what they said they would do, and in our opinion with integrity and transparency. Of course any investment has risks, but one way to minimize decision making risk is to deal with people that you can trust. We trust the good people that are Realized 1031 and plan on doing business with them again.

Nice tool to aid investor understanding of financial returns of investment. Requires some financial acuity to understand at a glance without guidance.

I was happy to help as I will be a user of the tools that I looked at. I think it would help if Russ had a better understanding of the products that Realized is marketing. As it is, the conversation is necessarily more abstract than concrete and my suggestions are harder to implement in that situation

I have three investments through Realized. I’m planning on doing a fourth within the next year. My original plan was to sell a number of real estate investment, combine the proceeds, and invest in a single triple net leased property. The timing required by the IRS made that unfeasible. Realized offered an alternative through a DST. Realized’s web site offered detailed information on available investments without having to contact a salesperson. That gave me time to research, formulate my questions, and analyze before speaking to anyone. Very satisfied with my relationship with Realized and the sponsors of my chosen DSTs.

So far so good. My check shows up on time each month and they send me a clear, easy to read statement to review.

Very good experience investing with Realized. They stepped right in to help me months later when one of the companies I had invested in made an error with my disbursements.

The team we interacted, led by Drew, did a terrific job. They were very patient with my many questions and requests for info.

I had a great experience working with the Realized staffs. They made the process seamless. The only suggestion I would make is to improve their web site. I have not been able to download the PPM files from the web site. Since I can't download the file, I have to view the file online, page by page. It is not practical to view it that way as the file is a few hundred pages long. So I sometimes request a copy by mail.
