What You Need To Know About a Deferred Sales Trust

What You Need To Know About a Deferred Sales Trust | Reef Point LLC

A Deferred Sales Trust is an innovative legal tax strategy that allows you to defer capital gains taxes on selling highly appreciated assets. It’s growing faster than any other tax mitigation strategy in the U.S. If you plan to sell a business, real estate investment or cryptocurrency, you will likely face substantial capital gains taxes on your federal returns. A DST can help you avoid paying capital gains taxes immediately and save you money in the long run.

Important Tax Deadlines To Keep in Mind | Reef Point LLC

Every year, the Internal Revenue Service chooses a date at the end of January to mark the beginning of tax filing season. In 2023, that date was Monday, January 23rd. The traditional filing deadline is April 15th, but weekends and holidays alter the date. You have until April 18, 2023, to e-file or mail your taxes. However, those two dates are not the only significant dates you need to know about.

An installment sale is a type of sale in which the buyer pays the seller in installments over time, rather than in a lump sum payment.

Do You Have Control Over a Deferred Sales Trust? | AmeriEstate Legal Plan

If you invest in real estate property or other high-value holdings, you may owe the federal government and your state capital gains taxes if you sell the property and profit from it. These taxes can significantly reduce how much you benefit from the sale. Furthermore, gains not secured in a trust are subject to probate if you hold them in your estate to pass on to your heirs.
