Tax Deferred Cash Out

Has anyone here executed a "Tax Deferred Cash Out" transaction?  In trying to figure out how to avoid capital gains taxes on the sale of a rental property, I came across a few companies advertising this on the internet.  Basically, you sell the property to the intermediary and receive a note with a 30-year term and interest only monthly payments to an escrow account with a balloon payment at the end of the 30 years.  The intermediary then sells the property to the buyer, and sets you up with a lender who loans you 93.5% of the property's value on the same terms (30-year term, interest only payments w/ a balloon payment at the end).  So you end up deferring cap gains taxes for 30 years.  Seems too good to be true, so checking with the experts here.

    30 year interest only on the seller side sounds horrible. I would love to buy a house or property that way. The value of balloon at the end of 30 years is nothing.

    you’re assuming the buyer doesn’t sell for 30 years? The second they sell (average of 5-10 years?) then you have the same tax bill but you paid 7% extra in fees?
