Two founding brokers and two dedicated advisors — all licensed in Nevada, all specialists in the Las Vegas luxury market, and all focused on one outcome: keeping your capital gains out of Sacramento, Springfield, and Albany.
Ken and Yorgho founded You Decide Realty and 1031 Exchange Elite on a shared belief — that investors deserve advisors with skin in the game, not salaried agents filling a quota.
Ken Calder built You Decide Realty on a simple premise — that high-net-worth investors deserve an advisor who fights for their outcome, not their commission. As Broker and Owner of 1031 Exchange Elite, Ken specializes in guiding investors through the complexities of tax-deferred exchanges into Las Vegas luxury real estate, where Nevada's zero state income tax creates a permanent financial advantage that compounds for decades.
Licensed in both Nevada and Tennessee, Ken brings a deep understanding of the cross-state exchange landscape — from identifying replacement properties within the critical 45-day window to coordinating with Qualified Intermediaries, estate attorneys, and CPAs to ensure every deadline is met and every dollar is protected.
His approach is straightforward: show clients the exact numbers, explain every option, and let them decide. No pressure. No hidden agenda. Just precise execution on one of the most consequential financial moves an investor can make.
Yorgho Triantaphyllou is a founding Broker and Owner of both You Decide Realty and 1031 Exchange Elite, bringing a rigorous, detail-driven approach to one of real estate's most time-sensitive and financially consequential transactions. As a licensed broker in Nevada and Tennessee, Yorgho works alongside investors navigating the complexities of 1031 exchanges — ensuring every identification deadline, exchange structure, and replacement property decision is executed with precision.
Yorgho's philosophy mirrors the firm's founding principle: that sophisticated investors deserve complete transparency, unbiased guidance, and an advisor who measures success by the outcome for the client — not the size of the commission.
His deep knowledge of the Las Vegas luxury market — from guard-gated communities in Summerlin to custom estate lots in Henderson — positions him to move quickly when the 45-day identification window opens, matching clients to the right replacement property without compromise.
Our advisors bring deep Las Vegas market knowledge, exceptional client service, and the relentless drive to find the right replacement property — before your deadline arrives.
Maggie Ameen is the kind of advisor investors rely on when the details matter most — and in a 1031 exchange, every detail matters. A licensed Nevada Realtor with deep roots in the Las Vegas market, Maggie brings an exceptional command of local inventory, neighborhood dynamics, and transaction mechanics that gives her clients a decisive edge when the identification window opens.
Known for her determination and relentless follow-through, Maggie ensures that nothing falls through the cracks — from the initial property search through contract negotiations, due diligence, and close. Whether you're looking for a guard-gated estate in Summerlin or an income-producing investment property, Maggie's market knowledge means you're always working with someone who already knows the answer before you finish the question.
Konstantina Panagopoulos is an advocate first and an advisor second — and her clients feel the difference the moment negotiations begin. A licensed Nevada Realtor with a reputation for tenacity in the transaction, Konstantina brings an unwavering commitment to securing the best possible terms, price, and outcome for every investor she represents.
In the high-stakes world of 1031 exchanges, where replacement property decisions must be made quickly and executed precisely, Konstantina's negotiating edge becomes a genuine financial advantage. She doesn't settle, she doesn't back down, and she doesn't stop working until her clients have exactly what they came for — because she knows how much is riding on it.
A 30-minute call with Ken or Yorgho — and your CPA if you'd like — costs nothing and shows you exactly what a Nevada exchange looks like for your specific situation.
