Valuation of commercial property in the event of divorce

Questioner

Due to a divorce, a business property must be divided, among other things. However, the company will continue, but its value must be calculated. If the property were to be sold later, you would still have to pay tax. Should this already be taken into account when dividing the property?

Lawyer

Yes, this is a deferred tax claim and therefore a burden that can be included in the valuation of a business to be distributed (is this the case?). My advice is to always have the tax aspects assessed by a tax expert when valuing a business for the purpose of transferring/allocating it (also in the event of divorce).
