# nxt-CRE > nxt-CRE is a 1031 exchange matching platform for commercial real estate. It connects property sellers, listing brokers and lenders with lender-verified 1031 exchange investors - buyers who have capital in hand and an IRS deadline to reinvest. Based in Miami, Florida. ## What nxt-CRE does - Matches commercial properties for sale with 1031 exchange buyers whose criteria fit (property type, location, price range, timeline). - Gives 1031 exchange investors deal flow beyond what most investors see publicly, including off-market, distressed, value-add and bank-controlled properties. - Provides exchange investors with a high-level analysis of each matched property's financial and physical condition. - Alex, nxt-CRE's AI 1031 exchange acquisition desk, answers calls and texts at 1-415-767-1338. A person from the team is available on request. ## How nxt-CRE finds buyers - nxt-CRE sources its 1031 exchange buyers from lenders. When a commercial property owner plans to sell, they ask their lender for a loan payoff letter, usually about 30 days before closing - an early signal that a 1031 exchange may be coming. - Through lenders and their loan servicers, the owner is invited to share what they want to buy next. Sharing is voluntary; nxt-CRE never asks for or accepts information about the owner's loan or property performance. - Result: buyers are lender-verified, and nxt-CRE reaches them early - typically 75-90 days before their 45-day identification deadline. - Buyer identity and contact details stay private until the buyer chooses to engage with a seller. ## Who it is for - **Sellers and owners** who want to sell to a buyer on a 1031 clock: upload the property and it is matched against active exchange buyers. - **Listing brokers** who want their listings in front of motivated exchange buyers: upload the listing; when it matches a buyer, the match is released to them. - **1031 exchange investors** who need replacement property before their identification and closing deadlines: complete a short profile and receive matched properties. - **Sponsors raising capital** through DST/TIC offerings: list each offering so it can be matched with exchange investors placing the remainder of their proceeds. ## Cost - 1031 exchange investors: no cost. nxt-CRE can cover up to $5,000 of the investor's closing costs when they close on a matched property. - Sellers and brokers: no cost to upload a listing or review a match. If a sale closes through the platform, there is a seller-side success fee on a sliding scale. ## How it works 1. A seller or broker uploads a property at nxt-cre.com ("Find Must-Buy Investors"). 2. Each listing is matched against the criteria of nxt-CRE's 1031 exchange buyers. 3. When a listing fits, the buyer is alerted and can request more information or submit a Letter of Intent. 4. nxt-CRE connects the buyer and the seller or broker. Buyer identities stay confidential until both sides engage. ## Company - Founder and Chief Strategist: Adam Sharif. - The founding team has over 150 years of combined commercial real estate capital markets experience from leading CRE financial institutions, top-ranked brokerage and technology. - Team: https://www.nxt-cre.com/aboutus - Website: https://www.nxt-cre.com - Phone: 1-415-767-1338 ## Key pages - [Home](https://www.nxt-cre.com/): overview of 1031 exchange matching - [FAQ](https://www.nxt-cre.com/faq.html): common questions from sellers, brokers and exchange investors - [About us](https://www.nxt-cre.com/aboutus): the team
