The Deferred Sales Trust (DST) is an established, legal, and proven tax-deferral strategy that can potentially help you defer thousands of dollars on the sale of your business, practice, or property. When you sell these types of assets, you need to pay what’s known as capital gains tax. This portion of the money is paid from the profit of your sale. In many cases, sellers lose up to 20-35% of their overall profits by having to pay capital gains tax. The Deferred Sales Trust can help you defer capital gains taxes by selling your assets to a third party trust. Countless business / property owners have sold their assets through Freedom Bridge Capital Deferred Sales Trust and deferred having to pay capital gains tax.
Despite the fact that the Deferred Sales Trust has been around for decades, many financial advisors, CPAs, and lawyers have never heard of the DST. As a result, people are initially skeptical when they learn of this legal and proven way to defer capital gains tax on the sale of your assets. Unfortunately, many company and real estate owners have been told to pay their capital gains tax after selling. As a result, they’ve missed the opportunity to defer20-35% of their capital gains taxes.
The Deferred Sales Trust is a capital gains tax solution that allows owners to sell their asset to a trust instead of selling straight to the buyer. The trust then sells your business or property to the buyer.
