Wife and I just had a meeting last week with RBC wealth management to discuss some thing and move cash around. USA account was a good idea years ago for home in Florida.
I hated private banking at the beginning but agree let the specialists handle your accounts less risk and greater returns. You are still in control. Yes that’s why farmers should have Accountants, lawyers, financial planners, Bankers etc. They work for you and you still make the decisions.
Now today’s topic land ownership and this investor bullshit thing going on right now. I’ll use a scenario we were presented with for discussion purposes. No I’m not selling the home base. No it’s not forsale. This is about other property and a scenario.
Example a half section rent vs new rev generating investment .
Land value example 325000 x 2 = $650,000.00 under a single persons capital gains so no taxes off.
Rent on property as example 50.00 I know I’m using a low rent but 70 and a 100 will be used later in example. This is what locals would pay.
320acres x 50 x 5%Gst = $16800.00 what local renter would pay any one.
320 x 75 x 5% = $25200. Out of area guy looking for extra land would pay.
320 x 100 x5% = $33600 BTO or wanna bee need dirt to keep getting bigger.
Minus land taxes and pay gst if can’t right off.
Your income and you use a smaller land base to right off. Or pay taxes but for this we’re leaving the accounting part out.
Now use the sale of the land and put in the investment I talked about yes risk involved but so is getting paid from last two examples.
Scenario investment.
Take the $650,000.00
Two checks a year spring and fall paid to you of 5% or $16250 spring and fall as income yes pay the taxes but again for this equation it’s a example.
If the investment makes 11 plus that adds to your pot you still get the 5%. If the investment has a bad half the 5% could be lowered to 4 adjusted yearly. But for this example just leave it at 5%.
Why land isn’t a good investment any more is my comment.
You basically get more in 6 months than your buddy the local guy is willing to pay for yearly rent.
You are basically getting a $100.00 a acre which is same as the BTO is willing to pay.
Ah am I missing some thing. Don’t think so.
Simple example that I think makes real good sense. What are others seeing for investment opportunities. Land vs investments.
