License LinkUp

09/24/2026

Being a boutique broker shouldn’t mean being available 24/7.

Your client calls with an opportunity in another state.
You need someone on the ground across town.
You’re overloaded.
Or, radical thought… you’d actually like to take a vacation. 🌴

That’s why we built License LinkUp.

Commercial brokers: we have a live coverage request. 🔗

We’re looking for a licensed commercial real estate broker to provide one week of vacation coverage across Culver City, West Los Angeles and Robertson-Pico.

This is exactly why License LinkUp exists.

Brokers shouldn’t have to choose between taking time off and being available when a client needs someone on the ground.

If you’re licensed, experienced in these markets and available to provide local support, sign up or log in to License LinkUp and connect with us - or simply slide into our DMs.

And if you’re a broker who could use trusted coverage when you travel, get busy or simply can’t be in two places at once, join the network.

🔗 Your license. Your network. More ways to work.

Your 1031 client isn’t necessarily only looking at properties in your market 🌎

In the first eight days of September alone, several major DST offerings announced full subscriptions, including:

• $197M JLLX Diversified 11 DST, spanning 12 properties across industrial, healthcare and grocery-anchored retail.
• $63.34M ExchangeRight portfolio, spanning 11 properties across nine states.
• $52.85M ExchangeRight portfolio across South Carolina, Georgia and Virginia.
• $9.67M equity raise for a Dallas healthcare DST.

That’s approximately $323M across these four announcements alone.

The point isn’t that every 1031 investor should choose a DST. They shouldn’t, and every investor’s circumstances are different.

The point for commercial brokers is that replacement-property capital can move across structures, asset classes and state lines.

So when a client’s next opportunity sits outside your market, the answer shouldn’t automatically be to step away from the relationship.

Build the network that lets you keep serving it 🤝

Capital moves nationally. Your network should too.

That’s the future we’re building toward at License LinkUp.

Commercial real estate brokers: when was the last time you took a real holiday? 🌴

Not a holiday where you were still answering emails.
Not one where you stepped away from lunch to take a client call.
Not one where you were trying to organize a property tour from another state.

A real holiday.

Over a year ago, we asked commercial real estate brokers whether they wanted a platform that could help them step away from their business without their deals grinding to a halt.

The response was overwhelmingly yes.

It’s one of the reasons we created License LinkUp.

Because deals don’t stop when you get on a plane. ✈️

Right now, we have an immediate need for vacation coverage in Los Angeles, specifically:

West LA • Culver City • West Adams • Robertson

We’re looking for a licensed commercial real estate broker who knows these markets and can provide boots-on-the-ground support while another broker takes a much-needed holiday.

Tours.
Local representation.
Client support.
Keeping the deal moving.

If that’s you, get in touch with License LinkUp.

And if you’re the broker who desperately needs the holiday? You should probably get in touch too. 😉

Your 1031 client has more options than you might think. And for brokers, that matters. 👀

Peachtree Group recently fully subscribed its $91.5 million PG Savannah Industrial DST, backed by an approximately 600,000-square-foot, debt-free distribution facility in the Savannah area leased to Hasbro through 2036.

It's a useful real-world example of something we think commercial brokers need to be talking about.

Your client's search doesn't necessarily stop with the properties you know, the asset class they've owned before, or the state you're licensed in.

They're operating in a market where replacement opportunities can include direct ownership, DST structures and other qualifying real estate opportunities across different markets.

And that creates both a challenge and an opportunity for the broker.

We don't believe the answer is that every boutique brokerage needs to become a national firm.

We believe great brokers should be able to stay boutique, extend their reach and remain at the center of the client relationship.

That's a big part of why License LinkUp exists.

When your client's opportunity takes you beyond your own market, we want License LinkUp to be the place you turn to find the relationships, local expertise and compliance information that help you work out what comes next.

Because the goal isn't to hand your client relationship away.

It's to have the network to keep serving it.

Stay boutique. Expand your reach. Protect the relationship.

License LinkUp. Bigger opportunities. Stronger relationships.

The perfect property is in another state. Now what? 👀

For CRE brokers, crossing a state line can change the rules around participation, cooperation, local representation and compensation.

And when a deal is moving, you need to know where to start.

That’s why we built the License LinkUp Compliance Hub.

🇺🇸 State-by-state information
🔎 Cross-state compliance research
🤝 Built for commercial real estate brokers navigating opportunities beyond their home market

Because your client crossing state lines doesn’t automatically mean your relationship has to.

Your client just found the perfect property. It’s in another state.

Now what?

Cross-state commercial real estate can raise important questions around licensing, broker cooperation, local representation and compensation, and the answers can change from state to state.

The License LinkUp Compliance Hub was built to give commercial real estate professionals a clearer starting point.

Check the state. Understand the framework. Identify what needs further investigation. Then keep the opportunity moving.

Because opportunity isn’t confined by state lines, and your network shouldn’t be either.

A 1031 exchange does not leave much room for an improvised cross-state process 🤔

Under the current IRS Instructions for Form 8824, replacement property in a deferred exchange must be identified within 45 days after the relinquished property is transferred. The replacement property must then be received within 180 days, or by the due date of the tax return, including extensions, if earlier.[1]

That makes a cross-state opportunity an ex*****on question, not simply a networking question.

If a replacement-property search reaches beyond the broker’s core market, the process cannot begin with a last-minute search for a local contact. It requires an established way to access appropriate local expertise, preserve the client relationship, and define support clearly.

The clock is not when a network should be built. It is when the network should already be working.

Stay boutique. Think nationally. Collaborate locally.
