What is a Deferred Sales Trust(DST)?

The DST has been used by financial savvy professionals and their clients for more than 22 years. It is a legal, proven and tested proprietary estate and tax planning strategy that allows persons who own highly appreciated assets such as real estate, a business, or high value collectables to sell those assets and defer the ordinary income taxes and capital gains taxes over a period of years instead of paying them all in a lump sum. The Deferred Sales Trust gives the seller/tax payer the ability to control their capital gains tax exposure, reinvestment terms, and installment payments made from the trust. The Law Firm who created the DST stands behind each client by offering Audit Defense Protection.  In the event your DST is ever audited in Federal or State Court or by the IRS,  Campbell Law will offer to represent you in such audit as part of their initial engagement agreement, and at no additional cost to the client.  The DST has withstood over a dozen such audits as well as direct independent IRS reviews.   To date, the DST has a perfect legal and tax compliant record.

Who offers the Deferred Sales Trust™?

The Deferred Sales Trust (DST) is only available from the Estate Planning Team, LLC, in partnership with the Campbell Law Firm. Todd Campbell, Tax Attorney and CPA is the creator and architect of the Deferred Sales Trust. The Estate Planning Team, founded by Robert Binkele partnered with Campbell Law 21 years ago to develop a broad based approach to promote the DST strategy on a national basis.  The Estate Planning Team manages all marketing and compliance related to the offering and execution of the DST.

The Estate Planning Team has successfully implemented thousands of DST’s over the past 25 years. During that time there have been 14 field audits and 2 formal IRS reviews.  Campbell Law and the Estate Planning Team have never had a negative tax audit or adverse result from the IRS. Some of the most prominent tax law firms in the country, as well as hundreds of boutique tax law firms and CPA’s throughout the country have also independently reviewed the DST strategy, techniques and legal basis and have similarly concluded the DST to be sufficiently legal, proven and tested and would, and have recommended it to their own clients.

The Deferred Sales Trust requires the services of at least 3 distinct and independent professionals: The Tax Attorney, a Trustee and a Registered Investment Advisor.  Reef Point, LLC is and authorized and approved Trustee for the Deferred Sales Trust and an affiliate member of the Estate Planning Team, LLC. Because of the proprietary nature of the Deferred Sales Trust Strategy and the absolute requirement to create and manage every DST within strict IRS rules and guidelines, each of these independent professionals must be vetted and trained on all aspects of the DST. The Estate Planning Team supervises the vetting, training, marketing and compliance requirements for qualified professionals who wish to become affiliate members of the Estate Planning Team and to be able to offer this strategy to their own clients.
