StructuredSales.org
Our goal is to simplify structured installment sales by providing clear education and connecting sellers with trusted advisors who specialize in these transactions.
Most guidance is scattered across carrier docs, legal articles, and tax references.
Sellers and advisors often face a wide range of exit possibilities but lack a clean way to compare them.
People need tools and plain-language context, not just theory.
Calculator estimator, Structured Installment Sale material, Educational Content, Expert Help.

Deeper member resources, marketing material, improved collaboration tools, and enhanced content organization.

"Whenever a seller expresses anxiety about their taxes, I point them toward this strategy. I've urged my last three clients to use it, and the results speak for themselves."
"I've used this as a listing tool for several hesitant sellers. In one case, a client was convinced they'd lose 30% of their equity to taxes; showing them how to defer that through a structured sale turned a 'no' into a signed listing agreement."
"For my clients moving out of investment properties, I consistently urge them to look at this as a flexible alternative to a 1031 exchange. It's become a permanent fixture in my advisory approach."
"A long-time owner in my network was 'rent-trapped'—they wanted out of the landlord business but couldn't stand the tax consequences they would have been hit with. This strategy was the only reason they felt comfortable finally putting the property on the market."
"One of my best leads was stalling for two years because they 'couldn't stand the tax consequences' of a lump-sum payout, and couldn't risk the seller financing option. This strategy was the bridge we needed. It turned a cold lead into a signed engagement letter and, eventually, a successful closing."
"In the mid-market space, taxes can eat up the majority of a seller's retirement cushion. I was able to secure a major listing by proving that the seller didn't have to lose 25-35% of their proceeds on day one. It makes the conversation about wealth, not just price."
"When a client is facing a massive liquidity event, this is the first strategy I put on the table. I'll continue to advocate for its use because the tax savings are undeniable."
"Structured sales have unlocked a new market for us settlement pros. We can take the existing infrastructure and trust into a complex environment! Super helpful!!!"
"Great estate planning tool."
"I don't think many advisors understand the advantages of section 453b, fantastic method for growing wealth."
"I've urged my high-net-worth clients to use structured installment sales because it solves the 'tax leakage' problem. Instead of watching 30% of their hard-earned equity disappear to the IRS on day one, we keep that capital working."
"From a fiduciary standpoint, I can't ignore the math of an installment sale. And of course the investment options are just a cherry on top."
"A go-to tool for any long-term owners."
"It's the most underutilized tool in the code. I'll continue to recommend it to any client facing a major capital gain."
"In M&A, surprises are deal-killers. The team was able to be flexible with both parties early on in the process. You have to stay a step ahead here."
