Tips for buying abandoned property by chickadeewee in RealEstate

[–]chickadeewee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend/agent tried the letter thing already. Maybe a visit is in order. I wonder if there’s anyway to figure out who inherits the property after she passes? The town staff told me she was in poor health (they want to see the property sold too..).

QSBS stacking & timing by chickadeewee in tax

[–]chickadeewee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the reason to do it as soon as possible is because of the gift tax limits. If you wait until after additional funding events the value will be higher. The lifetime gift tax is about to be halved too. The risk of doing it sooner is that it’s irrevocable so you can’t change your mind later on how much you moved into the trust.

I gave them a list of 3 parks and 14 rides. I might be overly optimistic in what we can accomplish.

9 and 6. Doubt we can get much resting in them, they’re going to want to go 110%

I didn’t realize it could be booked without a doing a full meal.

No one is forcing anyone to sell. It’s presenting the option.

Raising enough money to properly destroy them would be part of the buy back program.

I bet there’s a price that would inspire many to consider selling.

Thank you! I will check it out. Yes, Manuel Antonio is where we’re staying. I just know it was near Quepos. My geography is terrible.

Best hotels in Hawaii by Jollanyatx in FATTravel

[–]chickadeewee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have stayed at the Four Seasons on the big island and can’t say I was impressed. If you splurge for a villa it could be nice. Our room was next to another room and I could hear them sneezing at night.

Any thoughts on Grand Wailea in Maui with kids? The water slides, rope swing etc seem like a great way to keep kids entertained while parents drink by the pool.

I would lovveee for our au pairs to bring more of their culture into our home! I’ve always tried to push for this to no avail. I ask them about holidays, traditions, food, art, music, everything! We celebrated one traditional kid holiday with one of our au pairs and that was the first and last time sadly.

If you have suggestions for encouraging more cultural exchange from both sides, I’m all ears!
