The statement that "Nearly 30% of all experienced real estate investors " is a market share estimate derived from an analysis of third-party market data as of October 2025, representing the proportional relationship between the Baker 1031 Investment investor database and an estimated total market of active real estate investors; this estimate is based on Crexi reporting a 2,000,000 user base, 80% of whom are assumed not to be agents/brokers, and 42% of activity dedicated to investment sales, from which a conservative assumption excludes 15.7% as non-investor service providers (e.g., appraisers, lenders), resulting in an estimated active investor market of 566,664; as the Baker 1031 Investment database comprises over 170,000 individuals or entities, this figure represents 30.00% of the estimated market.
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.
