Analysis Performed by Jerry Baker

The data on this page is curated and analyzed by Jerry Baker, the founder of Baker 1031 Investments. With over a decade of experience in institutional finance and family real estate, Jerry focuses on making complex tax-advantaged investments easy to understand. His goal is to provide clear, honest data so that every 1031 exchange investor can make a smart, informed decision. Every sponsor on our platform undergoes a strict review process to ensure it meets our high standards for performance and safety.

  • Estimates of "250,000 investors" and "30% market share" are derived from an October 2025 analysis of third-party data. The active investor market (estimated at 566,664) was calculated using Crexi’s 2M user base, filtered to exclude agents, brokers, and service providers, and limited to users active in investment sales. Comparing the Baker 1031 database of 255,000+ entities against this adjusted total results in a 30% market penetration estimate.

    The figures and calculations provided constitute a market share estimate based on unverified third-party data and internal assumptions utilized to define the estimated market; Baker 1031 Investment has not independently verified the accuracy of the underlying data, and the term "experienced real estate investors" is defined exclusively by this methodology and its internal assumptions. This communication is not a guarantee of future results, a testimonial, or a statement of performance for any investment product or service, and its accuracy is subject to the inherent limitations of the underlying data and the validity of the internal exclusion assumptions.

    The calculated platform averages presented reflect a statistical average of data provided by the specific investment sponsors listed here. The figures used in these averages are collected from self-reported statistics provided directly by the respective firms within their Private Placement Memorandums (PPMs). This information is provided solely for illustrative and educational purposes and is not intended to serve as the basis for any investment decision, nor does it constitute investment advice, a recommendation, or an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security.

    Due to the nature of self-reporting, the data presented may be incomplete, unverified, or subject to correction, and we make no representation or warranty as to its accuracy, completeness, or timeliness. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and all investments involve risk, including the possible loss of principal. The platform average represents a limited sample, and results from individual sponsors may vary materially. For complete underlying data, data from other investment sponsors, and/or additional detail, please contact us directly. The selection of results shown are a small fraction of the total amount of realized investments and are not guarantees of future results. There are often differences between the performance results and the actual results shown and other investments' outcomes. Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) investments are subject to volatility and loss of investor principal.
