How the Deferred Sales Trust Works.
The Sale
Asset Transfer
You sell your highly appreciated asset—whether real estate, a business, stocks, or artwork—to a third-party buyer at fair market value.
Instead of receiving proceeds directly (which triggers immediate capital gains tax), the sale is structured through a Deferred Sales Trust.

Tax Loss Harvesting
Tax Loss Harvesting & Direct Indexing.
Direct indexing allows you to own individual stocks within an index rather than ETFs and mutual funds. This unlocks powerful tax-loss harvesting—systematically selling positions at a loss to offset gains elsewhere, reducing your overall tax bill year after year.
Combined with charitable giving and legacy planning, direct indexing becomes a cornerstone of a comprehensive tax strategy that compounds savings over decades.
