I know that everyone's time is valuable so I would love to take you out for a cup of coffee if you are local to Boston or maybe help you with something else like technology, RE and etc.Thank you in advance  I would pay the $250-$500 to spend an hour on the phone with an attorney - as their advice (Especially if its a $25k or $50k investment) is a drop in the bucket.

When you buy or inherit a block of properties, you want to put them in buckets.

But never give up at EMD, or make sure you have a buckets specifically labeled for Capital-EMD or whatnot. 

So we have 3 buckets in my mind - SFH sale (basic), developer sale for the size of land (new to me), business sale (home + business).The most value would be in selling home + business I believe but I have no idea how to market/find potential buyers for such a thing.

The classification is really just a creation for bucketing options.

So agree probably taking advantage of those that want to break into lending and your right 1 mil in CA is a drop in the bucket .. 1 mil in the mid west can be 8 to 10 loans not one like CA..

I really should have had someone with a bucket truck or a couple younger guys.

You'd probably need a couple buckets and a day's labor to do the work, but it should by you a few years and completely seal any leaks for now.

Can you please clarify "keep your money in the taxable bucket and allocate accordingly"?
