Ideas To Minimize Capital Gains On Highly Appreciated Assets
Selling an asset that has appreciated considerably can be a bittersweet event. Usually much time is devoted to purchasing the asset at a low price and making a profit by selling it for a higher amount. However, how much of that profit is kept by the asset seller can be affected by capital gain’s tax treatment.
Any profit realized by an American Citizen from the sale of an asset is usually taxable as a capital gain. This type of tax is often associated with the sale of real estate, stocks, life insurance policies in life settlements and bonds.
A new strategy to reduce the tax liability of a capital gain is the Charitable Installment Bargain Sale. As an asset becomes more highly appreciated the strategy becomes more attractive. It has the ability of changing a sale of an asset from a taxable event into a tax deduction.
A Charitable Installment Bargain Sale occurs when an asset is sold at a discount from an asset owner to a charity. The difference between the asset’s market price, which is established by an appraisal, and the actual sales price creates a charitable contribution. Consequently, the asset seller is entitled to a tax deduction. The charity then pays the asset seller in installments over a predetermined amount of time.
After purchasing the asset, the charity can hold it or resell it. Usually an annuity is purchased by the charity to fund the ongoing payment installments to the asset seller. The benefit to the charity is the receipt of a discounted asset.
Charitable Installment Bargain Sales are being used successfully with a number of different assets. Specifically the strategy is gaining popularity in the life settlement industry. In addition, it is has been used when real estate sellers want an exit from 1031 exchanges without incurring hefty tax bills.
Not every asset sale is right for a Charitable Installment Bargain Sale. Although it is prudent to evaluate all tax strategies as a consideration when planning to sell any asset. Charitable Installment Bargain Sales are a new but increasingly popular strategy to preserve more of the profits from an asset’s sale.
