Help With 18-Unit Deal
Hi Guys,
I'm in talks with a seller to purchase an 18-unit high quality apartment complex. The only issue stopping the deal is that the seller does not want to pay the tax obligation on their long-term capital gains. If he has to pay them, the deal is no longer worth it for the seller.
Do you have any ideas on structuring this transaction for a minimum tax hit for the seller? Would a lease-purchase option help?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Tony

It is also known as seller financing. You buy it over time and he pays taxes on the in coming payment stream. Talk to an expert.
