Structured Sales – A Tax-Smart Strategy for Selling Appreciated Assets

What is a Structured Sale?

If you’re selling a business, real estate, or other high-value assets, a structured sale offers a tax-efficient way to manage your proceeds. Instead of receiving the full sale price in one taxable lump sum, a structured sale spreads payments over time, allowing you to defer capital gains taxes and secure steady income.

Why Consider a Structured Sale?

  1. Lower Immediate Tax Burden – Instead of paying high capital gains taxes upfront, payments are spread over time, reducing the tax impact.
  2. Predictable Income Stream – Receive scheduled payments, ensuring financial stability after selling a valuable asset.
  3. Investment Flexibility – Structured sales provide secure and steady returns, often backed by highly rated financial institutions.
  4. Estate & Retirement Planning – A structured sale can be a strategic part of long-term financial and estate planning.

Who Benefits from a Structured Sale?

  • Business Owners looking to transition out of their company while minimizing tax exposure.
  • Real Estate Investors selling highly appreciated properties.
  • Individuals with High-Value Assets who want to maintain financial security after a sale.
