The idea that what works for one client won’t necessarily work for another is true.
Argent often works with clients who have special or unique assets as part of their portfolios.
Notably, we have developed unique expertise in the areas of 1031 Like-Kind Exchanges, Farm & Ranch Management and Oil & Gas Management. Continue reading below for more information on these services.
Argent is deeply committed to serving our clients’ best interests.
Often we meet clients with unique needs and are challenged to delve further into new areas of service to meet those needs.
We believe our independence and agility are critical aspects of how we do business and allow our advisors to be flexible and creative in meeting client needs.
Below are three areas in which we have developed qualified teams of professionals to meet the unique needs of our clients. If you have special asset needs beyond those listed below, we encourage you to contact us to discuss how we may serve you and meet those needs.
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code provides a great opportunity to build wealth by deferring taxes. Owners of business and investment properties, through the use of a Qualified Intermediary, can sell one property and purchase a similar or “like-kind” property while deferring capital gains taxes. A like-kind exchange can involve any real estate in the U.S. For example, proceeds from the sale of an apartment complex could be used to purchase land.
Argent has a dedicated team of knowledgeable professionals that will work in tandem with your team of tax, accounting, and legal advisors to maximize the benefits of an exchange.
As Qualified Intermediary, Argent will prepare the 1031 Exchange Agreement and related notices, provide examples of applicable language for inclusion in the real estate contracts, and set up a unique account for each transaction and deliver monthly account statements and annual tax reporting statements.

The daily management of farm and ranch estates can be burdensome and achieving the greatest financial return can be complex.

Argent is dedicated to preserving your family legacy, and the goal of our farm and ranch management team is to relieve the daily management burden and worry over your farm and ranch estates, while helping to achieve the greatest financial return.
