Toney - I'm glad someone is paying attention to me!

So the fact that your estate plan has some things in common with what Edelman writes is simply one of coincidence - or two relatively smart people grasping the tax code in similar ways.As to high net worth - I just threw that in to help grab attention.

The question you really need to ask is what type of services I will receive for the fees I will be paying.

My partner has done a foreclosure and received $30K for a deal.

Is this inheritance (windfall) going to make a SMALL, MEDIUM or LARGE differecne in your income for the year in which you receive it?

Its about $3000 for closing based on the estimates I've received.

You can possibly receive some incentives from city, state or govt.

.- The CAT tax applies to rents received in the normal course of business although it does not apply to the disposition of capital assets.

IF you were looking for a home, but didn't meet criteria for an agency loan, wouldn't you be interested if someone offered a way to get all the benefits of ownership:1- move in for closing costs, plus 2 payments,2- the portion of their monthly payment of interest and taxes is deductible3- they receive, let's say, 50% of FUTURE appreciation4- protect title against BK, judgements, IRS liens etc during the termMuch more .. but the point is, now you're attracting people with an ownership mindset who agree to maintain the property in exchange for tax deductions, potential appreciation, and opportunity to improve the property for "forced appreciation".
