You could also potentially pay yourself a salary through the company, which could create retirement plan opportunities, such as contributing to a solo 401(k) or SEP IRA.

If you qualify for a Solo 401(k), you can roll pre-tax funds into the Solo 401(k) for the investment.

@Nasi K., check with the county tax assessor's office.We did something similar in Alabama last year breaking off a couple of acres from a generational family property. 

That is to say if the tax credit is $40 k across 10 years does that mean the value of the property increases by $40k?

I don't want to fork over 50 K into a tree that will rot in a relatively short period of time.  

Couple houses same square feet were sold around 925 to 950 K range without a pool.

Because they have to make their distributions, they have to do the tax documents (k-1) and other costs for the cap table etc.

not sure what your trying to learn or do.. but just pay them by the door.IE  10k 20k 30 k 50k.. each GC will have their own fee.Myself I pay on the low end because i do all the accounting for the GC he only has to cordinate the subs .. 

Only caveat I would add is that the OP mentioned that they no longer live in the property which takes owner occupied options like FHA 203(k) off the table. 

@Kristi K. did you read the post?
