@Slade Sizemore -If the property owner has experienced a great deal of appreciation, and claimed deprecation tax deductions along the way, receiving a lump sum of cash at sale without a new property to move to proceeds to (called a 1031 exchange), they'll be facing a painful tax bill.For this reason, many sellers benefit from doing an installment sale, which allows them to defer the taxes they owe over many years.More commonly, this is known as seller financing.
