About Rattikin Exchange Services
Experienced. Accessible. Committed to getting your transaction done right.
Rattikin Exchange
Rattikin Exchange Services, Inc. is a Fort Worth-based qualified intermediary firm providing expert Section 1031 exchange services to real estate investors across Texas and the nation. We represent real estate owners engaged in forward exchanges, reverse exchanges, and construction exchanges, with the personal attention, legal expertise, and competitive fees that national exchange companies simply can't match.
A Legacy of Real Estate Experience
Rattikin Exchange Services was founded by Jeffrey A. Rattikin as a natural extension of one of Fort Worth's most respected real estate law firms, a family legal tradition that dates back to 1916, when Jack Rattikin, Sr. began practicing law and helped pioneer the title insurance industry in Texas.
That legacy of integrity, innovation, and deep real estate knowledge is woven into everything we do at Rattikin Exchange Services. When you work with us, you're not just hiring a qualified intermediary. You're tapping into more than a century of combined real estate and legal expertise.
Who We Are
Our team is made up of legal and real estate professionals who understand the complex and demanding requirements of Section 1031 exchanges, not just the paperwork, but the strategy behind every transaction. We've served as qualified intermediary in thousands of exchanges, handling billions of dollars in exchange proceeds on a local, state, and national level.
We offer our clients the highest degree of integrity, professionalism, and efficiency at a price well below that charged by the national exchange companies.
What We Do
Rattikin Exchange provides complete services for planning and implementing tax-deferred exchanges, including:
- Initial consultation
- Research and strategic planning
- Documentation preparation
- Coordination of closings
Why Our Fees Are Lower
Most national exchange companies charge premium fees for what is essentially a standardized process. Because Rattikin Exchange operates as a lean, experienced local firm backed by an established real estate law practice, we're able to offer a substantially lower upfront fee structure without sacrificing service, security, or expertise. Often, our approach results in significant savings for our clients compared to what they'd pay elsewhere.
Backed by RattikinLaw
Rattikin Exchange Services operates in close partnership with RattikinLaw, a multi-generational full-service real estate and business law firm in Fort Worth. This relationship gives our clients something no standalone national exchange company can offer: direct access to seasoned real estate attorneys when questions arise that go beyond the mechanics of an exchange.
