KEEP in mind JT is 1.5 hour drive from 30 million plus folks.. 

May I know what are advantage, disadvantages of master leasing compared to traditional property management?

I did not know the answer for Connecticut and thought I would ask

Just for kicks, i looked up a few sf properties sold last year and see that land ranged from 40% to 60% so without knowing your property specifics, dunno why your land would be assessed 70%all i can suggest is look at comparable sales and see what the ratio is and then appeal using that dataalso i remember many years ago, a home was assessed higher than the transaction amount and after failing to reach agreement with assessor office, the homeowner reached out to the different elected city reps.

If not, let me know and I'd be happy to help!

One thing that comes to mind, which Don Campbell always says, is that there is no "Canadian real estate Market".

You want an accountant who can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the consequences of the financial decisions you are making throughout the year.There are over 20 real estate accountants on this site.

Let me know if you are unable to locate. 

As you speak to potential renters, you can let them know they can also rent it furnished for a higher rate.

Hiring expeditors seems to be the right approach from what I know.
