As far as some other comments about like kind etc, you can sell this SFR and then buy a warehouse, or vacant land or even exchange into a DST there are many other assets that are considered 'like kind'.

In the past 10 years, Ocala has greatly improved the employment base, adding tons of logistics and distribution jobs on top of the medical, service and equestrian jobs that we have always had. 

If you want to develop it, I can refer you a lender that will lend on a completed subject to appraisal but you'll be limited if you just want it for the lot.If you simply want the land as part of your property, you have more options including a HELOC which you can still use for development down the road. 

We are at the feasibility stage and need help determining the best way forward for the land we have in Maricopa, Arizona.

Entity structuring, basis calculation (i.e. breakout between building and land), deductible expenses, etc.

I would still set aside money for renovations that are need based if you do that and use the rest to invest.

I develop land in Nashville from finding the deals, getting all the entitlement and permits, financing it, to building it in house with my GC license.

Not all but a vast majority based on my doing deals in PA NJ WV OH SC etc etc. 

That also plays a major role in what to do. end of day stocks and real estate over time provide the same return on average - so it is really based on the individual, their experience and desire Thank you. 

Did you work with a realtor to help find land?
