I have seen more than a few syndicators underwrite real estate taxes to 80% of purchase price, which this equates to, presumably based on a tax consultants recommendation.Put simply: when the parties disclose the value of the real estate being transferred, they put own 80% of actual purchase price, with the remaining 20% likely going to goodwill or other intangible assets.

I took apart my TV (a few times, and the toaster) when I was 11 and after a little parental lecture, they encouraged it (this time with Goodwill appliances).

When the partner’s draw payments ceased this CPA became involved selling Sponsorships” in a very dubious MLM scheme; he was trading in all the goodwill and reputation he had garnered in 25 years of practice to make a quick hit because of his financial position. 3.

I then sold the “business” (equipment, name, signs, goodwill, etc) to an operator for $50,000 cash, and the operator signed a five year 3N lease at $3,000 per month.

I think the best advice would be to talk to an asset protection attorney, who if good, will craft a strategy for you. 

The ones that are not built as good will use particle board in different areas of the home.

This becomes a negotiating point...maybe you can add some $$$ to the purchase price or get some other negotiating point or goodwill. 

Sounds good, will send you some feedback on a couple reverse 1031 exchange providers that our customers work with. 

If this customer desires a Rheem Brand whatever due to the companies clever marketing or product superiority in some way that the customer values highly- maybe think about offering that as a choice or even a standard option where you build upon the companies goodwill that they already have in place for the product.Good Luck!

Yes we all want a good deal, but not everything that looks good will be good.
