Bill, I love it. This should add a little control and protect investors funds. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. I missed this one.

Hi Endre,


Yes, it should help.  There are many smaller 1031 exchange Qualified Intermediaries that were not bonded or only purchased a small bond of $250,000 or less so that they could say they were bonded, but it was not adequate.  We still believe that the current legislation does not go far enough, but it is a step in the right direction.
