Whether your clients are receiving funds from a property or business sale, they count on you to help them evaluate tax-smart strategies.

This strategy applies to both qualifying property and business sales eligible for a structured installment sale under Internal Revenue Code Section 453. In this presentation, we will discuss the tax benefits of periodic payments versus a lump sum, how periodic payments can help fund a client's retirement, and case examples in which clients were able to defer their tax liability.

  • Determine how to help your clients convert their lump sum into periodic payments to defer their tax liability and help protect their proceeds.
