Don’t lose a third of your gain to the IRS

A Charitable Remainder Trust (CRUT) defers capital gains taxes on your appreciated assets, so you can reinvest the full proceeds to build wealth and collect income for life. We’ll show you the after-tax difference in a free tax strategy session.

I was staring down a seven-figure tax bill on my startup equity. Valur set up a CRUT in a day and kept my full sale proceeds invested instead.

When you sell without a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRUT), the IRS takes a large share of your gain up front. A CRUT keeps every dollar invested and compounding, so the money you’d lose to taxes keeps building for decades.

  • Defer 100% of capital gains taxes 
  • Tax-free compounding for decades
  • Used by billionaires like the founder of Nike

Your exact number depends on your state, age, and asset. We’ll calculate it with you on a free tax strategy session.

FAQ

Common questions about CRUTs

Yes. Charitable remainder trusts have been around since the 1700s and the last major update to their rules came in 1969, and the IRS recognizes them explicitly. Congress created them to encourage charitable giving, and the tax treatment is the incentive it offered in return.
