The sale and purchase of the Bell Ranch located in Northeastern New Mexico was closed on August 17, 2010. The singular offering encompassed 290,100 acres of contiguous deeded land most of which is located in San Miguel County about 40 miles north of Tucumcari and 150 miles east of Santa Fe. Knowledgeable sources indicate this is the largest single block of deeded land to sell in the Western United States during the past 60 years. The sale completes the Lane Family’s successful and widely-ad-mired 40-year commitment to carefully preserving the classic ranch-ing tradition possessed by this renowned and iconic land holding. The Buyer has indicated a strong interest in maintaining and enhancing the Bell Ranch – established in 1824 – as one of the most historic and admired cattle operations in the United States. The sale included all of the Ranch’s livestock. Two seasoned Rocky Mountain ranch broker’s cooperated closely bringing a combined 55 years of experience and reputable performance to the transaction. Ron Morris, with Ranch Marketing Associates in Denver, represented the Buyer. Patrick Bates, of Bates Sanders Swan Land Company in Salt Lake City, served the Seller.

David Fisher is a 30-year-old veteran of the financial services industry and considered an expert in this field.

OFM-Welcome to Open Fences MagazineDF-Thank you. It’s good to be here with you.OFM- There is a number of tax law changes coming from Congress that will be affecting many land owners starting in 2011. What do we know about them?DF- The great Will Rogers once said that the only differ-ence between death and taxes is that death doesn’t get worse every time Congress meets. The real problem with the tax law changes can be illustrated in the words of the philoso-pher Donald Rumsfeld when he once stated “Reports that say that something hasn’t happened are always interesting to me, because as we know there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns-- the ones we don’t know we don’t know.” OFM- So there is a number of unknowns in the new tax laws.DF- Correct. The Speaker of the House recently stated that it’s impossible to know what is in a bill until Congress votes on it. So finding new tax laws will be like a box of chocolates. You never really know what we’re going to get until its disclosed. Having said that there are some tax law changes that we know about and we can focus on those.OFM- Great. What do upscale land owners need to be con-cerned with?DF- There are 2 major tax change concerns and a third that has been part of the Tax Code for years that land owners need to be aware of. The first is the increase in the capital gains tax. It will be increasing to 20% starting in 2011. Granted, that may not sound like a big increase but when you consider that increase when dealing with multimillion dollar properties, it can be significant. In addition, when a property is sold, there is also state incomes tax to be paid in those states where the tax is applicable. That tax rate could range from a couple of percent to almost ten percent in

California. Because of the struggling state economies and mounting deficits, some states may be looking to increase the state income tax which could add to the tax burden when a property is sold. Then, you have the potential impact of depreciation recapture.OFM- Exactly how does depreciation recapture affect taxes paid in a property sale.DF- Here is how depreciation recapture works. The good news is that land cannot be depreciated but the rest of the farm/ranch can be. Since the capital gains tax rates are less than ordinary income tax rates, the IRS uses Section 1250 to maximize tax revenues from depreciating assets by requir-ing the profits to be reported as ordinary income rather than capital gains. This is called recapture of depreciation; it is assessed if the assets sell for a higher price than there depre-ciated value. For example, suppose someone buys a com-puter for $1000 and after a year, it depreciates to $600. If it is then sold for $700, the seller has recaptured $100 worth of depreciation. The $100 is taxed at ordinary income.OFM- So now, when a property is sold, the land seller can potentially pay a large percentage of his gain in taxes. Is there anything that the land seller can do to minimize their tax liability?DF- Yes. The IRS allows the land owner to reduce or defer these taxes through strategies such as charitable trusts and 1031 exchanges. These strategies and others may be appro-priate after consultation with the tax, legal and real estate advisors. Keeping them in the loop from the beginning of the sales process can be a wise move.OFM-So the capital gains tax can have a really unpleasant burden on the sale of a property. What else do land owners need to be concerned about?DF- One of the most devastating but overlooked tax law

2011 Real Estate TaxesWhat Will Happen When the Bush Tax Cuts Expire?

9Vol. I, No.3 opeN FeNces

change involves the federal estate tax. We have all heard of the late George Steinbrenner’s family saving $700 million in federal estate taxes and Texas billionaire Dan Duncan’s family saving roughly $4 billion in taxes because the fed-eral estate tax was repealed in 2010 only. There is not a better strategy for saving estate tax as long as you have no problem dying before the end of the year. My former CPA recently made that recommendation to me. If your advisors think otherwise and that does not sound like a good strategy then we need to look at the changes.OFM- So for land owners that have not paid attention in the past to the estate tax, how bad can the estate tax be? DF- For the demographics of this magazine, the estate tax changes can have an extremely unpleasant result. In 2009, the federal estate tax exemption was $3.5 million and the tax rate on the excess above the exemption is 45%. In 2011, the exemption and tax rate reverts back to the pre Bush tax cuts so starting on 1-1—11, the exemption will now be $1 million and the tax rate will now be 55%. A decrease in the exemption and an increase in the tax rate make a higher estate tax liability a 100% certainty. Land owners who did not concern themselves with the estate tax in 2009 better pay attention now.OFM- I recognize that when dealing with tax laws things can get rather complicated but can you give us a simple ex-ample of how the tax law changes will affect land owners.DF-Here is a simple example. If your estate was valued at $3.5 million, using 2009 tax rates, you would owe no estate tax. Contrast that with the estate tax that would be due using 2011 rates- your estate tax owed would now be $1,350,000 rather than 0. When you include all real estate and personal property, retirement plans, insurance not in an insurance trust and all other assets owned, the tax liability can be substantial.DF- But here is the worst part. The Wrigley family had to sell the Chicago Cubs to pay their estate tax liability and the Joe Robbie family had to sell the Miami Dolphins to pay their taxes. I cannot think of anything worse than having to sell that property with the amazing sunsets or the wonderful views of the snow capped mountains or the babbling brook full of trout that you hoped your family could treasure for decades so some nameless pompous Congressman can take those proceeds and waste them in some useless pork project in an effort to help him get reelected.OFM- That’s not a pleasant thought. In our last remaining moments, is there anything else that land owners need to know?DF- There are numerous concerns such as losing the

stepped up basis, the 3.8% Obamacare tax on investment income and the change in the rate of itemized deductions to 28% but let’s focus for a moment on an existing tax law, the alternative minimum tax. The tax has been around since 1969 in order to prevent the wealthy from avoiding taxes. Without going into specifics, Congress has done little to lessen the impact of the AMT on those who now uninten-tionally have to pay the extra tax burden. Here is the con-cern for land owners. One of the biggest red flags for having to pay the alternative minimum tax is a large capital gain such as the sale of real estate. Before selling your property, discuss the potential impact the sale may have. It may not have any impact but it would be good to know in advance. If the capital gains may have an impact, a discussion with your tax and real estate advisors concerning the viability of a 1031 exchange would probably be in order.OFM- That’s great information. Any quick final thoughts.DF- There is talk that Congress is considering increasing the estate tax exemption but as of today, nothing has been done. And always keep your tax, legal and real estate advi-sors in the loop. A couple of hours of billable time can liter-ally save you a fortune and protect your family.

New Mexico’s magnificent and iconic ranching empire

San Miguel County, New Mexico. The Bell Ranch is one of the most important – even singular – cattle ranches offered in the United States today. Encompassing 290,100 deeded acres, it may very well represent the only opportunity to purchase nearly 300,000 acres of North American land in one stroke for the balance of this century.

The Bell is part of a 656,000-acre 1824 Mexican land grant which was purchased by William N. Lane – a vigorous Chicago businessman – between 1974 and 1978. This remarkable holding is the largest working cattle ranch available in the United States today and offers great privacy and the unbridled freedom of operation and personal enjoyment found only within an empire encompassing 453 square miles of deeded land.

The Bell Ranch

The Bell possesses strong resources for successful entrance or expansion in the cattle business:• 290,100 blocked-up deeded acres - no federal or state land• 14 to 15 inches annual precipitation - elevation from 4,300 to 5,600 feet• Broad spectrum of strong grasses provide year ’round forage• 116 wells & windmills + 90 miles of pipeline + 206 stock tanks• Superb cattle-handling facilities at 14 locations & good fencing• Carrying capacity for 5,000 animal units – calf weights at 500 pounds• Six cow camps each with good homes;• Headquarters listed on National Register of Historic Places in 1974• Hacienda – 10,000 square feet - eight bedrooms - classic estancia architecture• 8,000 foot maintained dirt airfield – hangar & fuel storage• 18 miles of Conchas Lake frontage with a comfortable 2,800 square

foot guest house• Trophy antelope and turkey hunting• Mule deer, barbary sheep, black bear, cougar, quail, doves and elkThe Bell is a first-rate cattle ranch and world-class investment

offering its next owner a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to engage in one of America’s important industries. It also represents an amazing opportunity for immediate, successful expansion by existing large beef producers.

A large part of the bargain will be enjoyment of a wonderful authentic western lifestyle along with escape from the pressures of success into an inspiring private world of timeless natural grandeur. Because of The Bell’s extraordinary historical values and unsullied landscapes, consideration of conservation easements will hold appeal for some.

Previously, The Bell was offered at $440 per acre. Recognizing current global economic conditions, it has been discounted 35% to $286 an acre – $83,000,000 – including all seller-owned mineral rights. Please see www.TheBellRanch.com or call Patrick Bates at 801.560.4259 f

An Equestrian’s Dream, 102-Acre Wisconsin Ranch

A & A Ranch

On the Door Peninsula close to Green Bay shore is this marvelous 102-acre gated equestrian estate. The property has wonderful wooded trails for riding, open pastures for grazing, a horse playground for exercise and outdoor training, and indoor and outdoor arenas. The stable includes eight state-of-the-art horse stalls, tack room, washing and grooming stalls, feed room, as well as a comfortable lounge with a kitchen, dining and office areas, bathroom with shower, and laundry. While very comfortable for humans, every detail of the ranch was expertly planned to accommodate the horses in a natural environment. The stalls, with their cushioned rubber flooring, floor drains, and continual fresh water supply, open directly onto the paddock and beyond to the 140 x 80 foot Cover-All enclosed riding arena. The pastures are planted

with a perfect mixture of grasses. A 2-bedroom and 2-bathroom ranch house with a 2-car garage is part of the property. Also included are a heated mechanical and workshop garage and a hay/grain building. A conventional septic system, private well, and underground utilities serve the property. The land is beautiful, rolling, and very private. While the ranch is recognizable from adjoining roads; once on the property, the outside world disappears. Professional landscaping around the central ranch adds to the beauty of the setting. This unique property is a world away from the stresses of everyday living, yet it is just a few minutes drive to the villages of Ephraim, Sister Bay, and Ellison Bay. Most of the furnishings and equipment are included. $2,950,000 f

54,500 Deeded Contiguous Acres in Edwards & Kinney Counties, Texas

One of the last big ranches in the Hill Country of Texas, this ranch has been in the same family since the early 1940’s. Untouched and unspoiled, this country harkens to days gone by with open cattle country to heavily timbered canyons and unfettered views of the surrounding hills. Numerous springs pour out of the limestone hills supplying water to the Nueces River, Sycamore Creek, Spring Creek and Lost Creek. Ancient Indian paintings, caves, historic battlegrounds, early settlers homesteads, large stands of pinyon pines, and huge old growth trees, the Lost Creek Ranch has a world of adventures awaiting a new owner. Lost Creek Ranch is approximately 14 miles long by 7 miles wide and has nearly 12 miles of newly constructed crushed base road running from the front of the ranch almost to the back. This ranch has had extremely limited hunting on it for the past 40 years and is teaming with native wildlife and a fair number of exotics such as Axis deer, Aoudad

sheep, Black Buck antelope, and Fallow deer. Truly a sportsman’s paradise with high hills, bluffs, deep canyons and brush covered plains, you can walk all day and never come to your boundary fence. This unique ranch is steeped in history, from the ancient Indians who lived

here for thousands of years to the massacre of early German settlers to the hay day of Texas cattle drives, you cannot step foot on this ranch without being engrossed in its beauty, solitude and splendor. f
