Vanguard Properties PLC, a boutique real estate brokerage agency, that provides guidance for the acquisition and marketing of interests in realty with a special focus on assisting clients of a highly appreciated asset with a significant Capital Gain liability to place the proceeds from the sale of the asset into a Trust with an annual yield of 3 to 8 % (you and the Trustee select how to invest the proceeds), while deferring any Capital Gain liability for 10-20+ years. If your heirs inherit the Trust, the Capital Gains liability is eliminated for the beneficiaries.
Any asset with over $1 million dollars of value, or Capital Gains liability, is eligible, (multiple assets can be aggregated to meet the minimum asset value) including: commercial real estate holdings, retail/wholesale, industrial/construction, or family owned businesses, antiques/collectables, bitcoin holding, Even a single family primary residence can qualify! (Unavailable with a 1031 Exchange) Plus one can borrow up to 80% of the Trust's value to purchase a new investment and begin a new depreciation schedule. With a 1031 Exchange, your depreciation schedule follows you to the exchanged property. The DST is a much more flexible opportunity!
