OPINION

CARLSON, Bankruptcy Judge.

Appellant chapter 7 trustee brought three actions seeking to quiet title to real property and cash proceeds that Debtor received as an “accommodator” of tax-deferred exchanges under section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. The bankruptcy court granted summary judgment for defendants in all three actions, holding that Debtor held the property in trust, and that the bankruptcy trustee could not avoid the trust under the strong-arm powers of section 544(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. We affirm in all three appeals.
