A sale of a partnership interest occurs when one partner sells their ownership interest to another person or entity. The partnership is generally not involved in the transaction. However, the buyer and seller will notify the partnership of the transaction.

Under the purchase scenario, one or more remaining partners may buy out the terminating partner's interest for fair market value (FMV) plus any relief of debt realized by the partner.

The sale of a partnership interest is generally treated as a sale of a capital asset, resulting in capital gain or loss for the selling partner.

Multiply the percentage of ownership by the appraised value of the business to determine the amount necessary to buy your partner's share. For example, if your partner owns 25 percent of a business that appraised for $1 million, the value of your partner's share is $250,000.

Partnerships are generally guided by a partnership agreement, which may allow or restrict transfers of partnership interest. Partners must follow the terms of the agreement. If the agreement allows it, a partner can transfer ownership stakes in terms of profits, voting rights and responsibilities.

When one partner wants to leave the partnership, the partnership generally dissolves. Dissolution means the partners must fulfill any remaining business obligations, pay off all debts, and divide any assets and profits among themselves. Your partners may not want to dissolve the partnership due to your departure.

This means that a partner wishing to leave the partnership must first offer their interest to the other members in the company before offering it to an outside party. If all of the members refuse this offer, the partner is then allowed to transfer interest to anyone they choose.

Buyouts over time agree that the purchasing partner will pay the bought out partner a predetermined amount over time until their ownership has been fully purchased. Similarly, an earn-out pays the partner out over time but requires the partner to stay with the company during a defined transition period.
