MetLife Structured Installment sales are now available!

MetLife structured installment sales are finally available to real estate and small business investors who are selling highly appreciated capital assets and want to have a secured installment sale to defer taxes, secure future income and assist in estate and tax planning.

I’ve pasted below the MetLife Structured installment Sales pdf, which provides a fair amount of information on structured sales, or as I prefer to refer to them now, structured installment sales. Please note that at the time of this article, October 15, 2019, this program is only offered by MetLife in California, Texas, Florida and New Jersey. It is anticipated it will be available in more states in 2020.

The advantages of the Met Life Structured Installment Sale program are fairly obvious.

The first being the security of a major, highly rated life insurance company standing as the guarantor of all of the future payments. The security of MetLife promising to pay exactly as outline in the installment sale agreement can not be over stated. Let’s face it, big is good and MetLife is huge.

The second primary benefit is that MetLife uses a domestic assignment company to hold and guarantee the contractual payments. This is important to many people who are reluctant to use international assignment companies and to utilize the more complex banking arrangements at the time of sale that those deals require. With the MetLife structured installment sale, the funds say in the US and are administered by a fully owned subsidiary of MetLife , further guaranteeing the long term security of the deal.

The final key benefit of the MetLife structured installment sale program is that all payments are fixed and guaranteed, not subject to market fluctuations, reduced value or interest rate swings. The payment stream is guaranteed at onset and is fully dependable as to the nature of the payments, removing market and interest rate risks from any payment schedule you enter into.

In summary, the launch of the MetLife structured installment sale program is a game changer for those who have typically relied upon questionable 1031 Exchange programs or unsecured installment sales. In this situation you have a major company, impeccable credit, commitment to the market and top quality administration all rolled into one simple offering.
