Ask us about Tax Avoidance

A reminder:
Tax avoidance is Legal,
Tax evasion IS NOT!
“Anyone may so arrange his affairs that his taxes shall be as low as possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which will best pay the Treasury, there is not even a patriotic duty to increase ones taxes.”
Judge Learned Hand
Second Circuit Appeals Court

During this century there have been two primary methods of deferring or minimizing taxes on real estate dispositions. A third alternative has received increased attention in recent years. We have used them all, where and when applicable.
 

A New Alternative

Do you own highly appreciated real estate that is not producing enough income or has become a management headache? Are you reluctant to sell because you may have to pay up to 40% of your gain to the government in taxes? We know another way to eliminate the pain of capital gain.

WHAT IF YOU COULD:

  • AVOID TAXES
  • INCREASE YOUR INCOME
  • TAKE TAX DEDUCTIONS (up to 6 years)
  • BENEFIT A WORTHY INSTITUTION(S)
  • ELIMINATE MANAGEMENT HEADACHES
  • PROVIDE MORE FOR YOUR HEIRS
  • DISINHERIT THE IRS
If this sounds like an opportunity, IT IS. A planned gift of real estate to a qualified IRS nonprofit organization is one of the best tax shelters available to you and is totally legal. The government has provided for it in the tax code to help support charities, educational institutions, community foundations and other IRS qualified non-profit organizations. In these times of budget cutbacks, many educational and charitable institutions are in need of long term funding.

Even if your favorite non-profit organization(s) does not have a planned giving program, we can show how both of you can benefit.

Advance planning is required to maximize the benefit to your heirs and minimize taxes on your estate. Inadequate and/or untimely planning may erode your estate by as much as 75%. Planning now provides current benefits and avoids future problems. We do not charge for an interview to determine whether a planned gift involving real estate should be a part of your estate plan.
