How to Sell $10M Without Paying $4M in Taxes with Brett Swarts
Aug 21, 2026 Rob Beardsley

In this episode of the LSCRE Podcast, Craig McGrouther sits down with Brett Swarts of Capital Gains Tax Solutions to break down how investors can defer taxes when selling highly appreciated assets and put more of their capital to work.

They walk through the mechanics of a deferred sales trust, including a $10M example where an investor could defer a significant tax bill while creating a stream of passive income. They also discuss when a deferred sales trust, 1031 exchange, or combination of strategies may make sense depending on an investor's goals.
