6 Things You Need to Know Before You Sell Your Highly Appreciated Assets

Chances are that your current CPA, Attorney, Financial Advisor or Real Estate Professional do not specialize in the area of capital gains tax savings. This may result in misinformation or lack of any helpful advice from those who you rely on for major financial guidance. It is essential to work with someone familiar with current tax law, planning strategies and your entire financial situation to get the assistance you need. The following steps will give you a head start to find the right person to help minimize your tax obligation.

This is a crucial first step, because it will allow you to compare which strategy provides you the most benefit in savings. Not all tax professionals are aware of how to calculate the tax liability for every situation.
  2. Be sure all of the tax consequences are outlined. Some of the considerations are federal, state and/or city capital gains tax, recaptured depreciation, long or short term gain involved, corporate taxes (if applicable) and whether or not the Alternative Minimum Tax will be triggered by the sale. Be sure all of the taxes relevant to your situation are added and considered.

Rarely will they offer additional alternatives, so you may never be aware they exist. Have an advocate to ask the right questions to determine the details of a tax strategy and its long term effects. It is difficult to determine which plan to choose if you only hear the "selling points" and not the potential risks or down side....
