Fund handling
Homepage states the firm prioritizes security of clients’ funds using segregated accounts and stringent protocols. No account-title, TIN, or dual-control detail is published on the cited pages.
Who it is for
Nationwide delayed, simultaneous, reverse, improvement/construction, and reverse-improvement exchanges. Hayward, California QI. Founders named on the specialist page: Weiming Peng and Daniel Vaswani. DST capability was not published on the primary pages used for this file.
Verdict
Excel 1031, Inc. is a real QI with a primary site, a published legal name, a Hayward office, a segregated-accounts claim, and dedicated reverse / improvement / reverse-improvement pages. That is enough to list. It is still a thin custody file: no bond or E&O dollar limits (only ‘necessary bonding and insurance’), no FEA/CES facts, no dual-signature procedure, and the live site shows placeholder contact email and lorem-ipsum testimonials. Confirm legal entity, insurance declarations, and account control in writing before wiring.
Notes
Excel 1031, Inc. publishes 22544 Main Street, Hayward, CA 94541 and phone 510-316-8078. The specialist page names founders Weiming Peng and Daniel Vaswani and says the firm has “the necessary bonding and insurance” without stating limits.
The homepage’s testimonial block, as fetched on 2026-09-05, still contained placeholder “plagiarize global outsourcing” copy, and several pages show a dummy email (www.@example.com). That is a site-quality flag, not a custody fact. Request a current W-9, exchange agreement, and certificate of insurance before treating the marketing site as complete diligence.
