Rent-to-Own (Master Lease Option)
Combine lease income with a future sale — giving you steady cash flow today and a predetermined exit strategy tomorrow.
💰 Defer Capital Gains
Structure the sale as a lease with a purchase option — delay the tax liability until the tenant exercises the buy option, keeping more capital working for you.
📈 Steady Income
Receive regular rental payments throughout the lease period — reliable cash flow ideal for retirement planning or bridging financial gaps.
🔄 Flexibility & Control
Negotiate lease terms, option price, and duration. Set a 2-year, 5-year, or custom timeframe that aligns with your financial goals.
Example: You own a property that has appreciated significantly and want to eventually sell — but triggering a large capital gains tax now doesn't make sense. By entering a lease option, you collect rental income for 3–5 years, defer the tax event, and lock in a future sale price today.
The 4-step process
- Set terms — establish lease duration and option-to-purchase price.
- Lease agreement — tenant begins leasing with right to buy at term's end.
- Collect income — receive regular rental payments, deferring the sale.
- Close the sale — tenant exercises the option at the agreed price.
Seller Financing
Open your property to a wider pool of buyers by offering flexible financing directly — facilitating quicker sales and earning interest on the note.
👥 Broader Buyer Pool
Attract buyers who are financially capable but don't meet traditional lending requirements — significantly increasing demand for your property.
📈 Earn Interest Income
Rather than a one-time lump sum, earn interest on the financing you provide — often generating a higher overall return than a traditional sale.
⚙️ Negotiable Terms
Set the down payment, interest rate, payment schedule, and loan term. Full control over how the deal is structured.
Example: Your property has been sitting on the market because traditional buyers can't secure bank financing. By offering seller financing, you attract a motivated buyer who puts 15% down and makes monthly payments at 7% interest — a higher return than many investments, secured by the property itself.
The 4-step process
- Set terms — negotiate rate, down payment, and duration.
- Qualify buyer — vet the buyer's financials and ability to pay.
- Close & record — execute with proper legal documentation.
- Collect payments — receive monthly income plus interest.
1031 Exchange Services
Defer capital gains taxes entirely by reinvesting your sale proceeds into a new investment property — keeping 100% of your capital working for you.
📈 Maximize Returns
Defer capital gains taxes and reinvest the full sale amount. On a $1M sale with $300K in gains, that could mean keeping an extra $60K+ working for you.
🏗 Portfolio Optimization
Upgrade from aging, high-maintenance properties to newer assets in better locations. Improve cash flow and reduce management burden.
🌎 Out-of-State
Sell in a mature market and reinvest in high-growth areas across the country. Diversify your portfolio and capture better returns.
Example: You own an aging apartment building that requires constant maintenance. Using a 1031 Exchange, you sell and reinvest in a newer, low-maintenance commercial property in a high-demand area — improving both your portfolio performance and your quality of life as an investor.
The 4-step process
- Identify properties — find replacement properties meeting IRS criteria.
- Sell current asset — proceeds held by qualified intermediary.
- Purchase new — acquire replacement within IRS timeline.
- Defer taxes — full amount reinvested, taxes deferred.
