Sales Trusts

Sales Trusts are specialized financial arrangements where property or assets are held in trust for the benefit of beneficiaries, typically involving the sale of those assets. In a sales trust, the trustee, who manages the trust, oversees the sale of the trust’s assets and is responsible for distributing the proceeds to the beneficiaries according to the terms of the trust agreement. This type of trust is often used to facilitate the managed sale of investments or real estate, ensuring that the income generated from sales is allocated as intended. Sales trusts can provide benefits such as asset protection, tax advantages, and a structured means of transferring wealth. They are commonly utilized in estate planning, investment management, and in situations where ongoing asset management is required.
