This webinar will go over Real Estate Partnerships with Conservation Easement Potential, which creates the possibility to protect America’s precious lands and wildlife species from commercial development.
We will also discuss the Restricted Property Trust as a fully discriminatory employee benefit plan that provides a 100% corporate tax deduction on the front end while providing the owner with the cash value/death benefit of a whole life policy. On the back end, this insurance policy offers the client a tax-exempt stream of supplemental income and a death benefit. This solution is highly effective for business owners.
Finally, we will go over the R&D Tax Credit, one of the least known and underclaimed incentives available to U.S. businesses. We will discuss qualifying research activities and provide specific examples.
