Leveraging to Attain Basis Step-Up; Income Tax Benefits of Losing an FLP Case

Webinar

In this webinar the presenter will discuss that one can use debt to allow property to obtain a basis step-up at death without incurring estate tax; that one may monetize marketable securities and diversity without income tax; and, the effect of losing a family limited partnership estate tax case on the basis of the partnership’s assets.

Attendees will learn:

• how to strip 100% of the debt from property without violating lenders’ guidelines on loan-to-value ratios;
• transactions designed to obtain a basis step-up at the grantor’s death for property that currently is in an irrevocable trust;
• how to monetize securities and diversify without selling them for tax purposes; and,
• actions to consider when a beneficiary receives an asset constituting income in respect of a decedent.
