1031 exchange QIs
JTC Americas
JTC Americas is the 1031 exchange business of JTC, a professional services group that administers funds, corporate structures, private client trusts and employer share plans. Within JTC the exchange business sits under specialty administration, next to the group's EB-5 work, and acts as qualified intermediary on forward, reverse and more complex exchanges.
The group's 1031 material describes FDIC-insured accounts for exchange funds, Certified Exchange Specialists on staff and real-time transparency for clients, with exchangers using a dedicated 1031 Portal to follow a transaction. JTC's United States presence covers Delaware, South Dakota, San Jose and Boston, and the exchange team appears at industry events including the FEA annual conference.
JTC says it has 2,500 experts across 40 locations, spanning the UK and Crown Dependencies, Europe, Africa and the Americas, with an in-house legal arm, JTC Law. In September 2026 the group announced it had become a private company on completion of an acquisition by Permira.
The 1031 pages reached in this review publish no fee schedule and little mechanical detail. Before appointing JTC as intermediary, get written confirmation of where exchange funds are held, who has to authorise a disbursement, what happens on a failed exchange, and what forward, reverse and improvement exchanges cost.
