Tax strategies for sellers

[JasonMak2000]

Is there any tax advantage to selling a contract at a slightly lower price per point, and offsetting that with a slightly higher amount the buyer will pay for annual dues? ie- selling the contract for $9500 and $500 to cover annual dues vs. $10,000 and seller pays all annual dues.

Maybe. Depends if the seller will have a capital gain. Even if that is the case, I don't think it would be a significant amount.

Lower ppp means smaller commission for broker.

Don' t think it will matter for ROFR. ( Disney people know how to do math, LOL).

Taxes are more complicated than that. If you bought it for 20K, who cares. If you are running this as a business, you will be in a whole different tax sandbox. If you're in Canada, who knows how they tax this?

But yea, money like that is generally included in the math to calculate gain on both ends, so your particular example shouldn't matter. Otherwise, everyone would just buy the furniture in the house and not the house. Of course, taxes are complicated and I'm a stranger on the Internet.
