Happy 10/31 Day. {tomorrow}
In honor of 1031 exchanges, here is a look at exchange activity through Q3 2026, based on aggregated data from more than 30 national qualified intermediaries using Exchange Manager Proâ„ .
A few highlights:
- Relinquished property growth was strongest in mid-sized markets, led by Connecticut, Minnesota and Mississippi.
- DSTs now account for 15.30% of replacement funds in completed exchanges, up from 11.45% in 2025.
Many 2026 exchanges are still inside their 180-day window, so replacement-side figures are early indicators.
