Hi All. So excited to be a new member in the BP community! 
My parents in-law bought their primary residence in California for ~ $350k and now it's worth over $2mm. Obviously, their capital gains are well beyond the ...

Selling now prioritizes liquidity and growth opportunities, while holding benefits from long-term appreciation and rental income.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Would appreciate the insure.  

Any feedback and suggestions with examples to get started would be much appreciated.

This is solid stuff—I appreciate you dropping knowledge!

Your situation presents a classic trade-off between long-term appreciation potential and short-term debt reduction.

I appreciate any advice or insight. 

In Columbus, appreciation is between 7-17%, and cash flow is at 8-12%. 

My brother had access to the other $160K but ultimately purchased a 4-plex two months later using his own money instead.Currently, its written that if my brother doesn't use the funds then he gets 160k value from the estate extra, as I used my half already but then my dad suggested a 2% annual appreciation on that amount seems fair on the 160k for him, and now he believes it should match his home’s appreciation, which is roughly 5% per year.

Appreciate your time.
