Skaneateles Lake ? Fabulous Land, With Tax Breaks? Yes, It?s True.

Posted by Elite Internet Technologies on January 18th, 2016

Skaneateles is one of those authentic upstate New York areas which retains the fabulous beauty and grace of authentic modern Americana with some very good property deals built in. There’s an 80-acre property here which comes with some very interesting tax break options combined with the sort of land value would think was impossible in New York.

This place has waterfront access, private driveway, and pristine original land. It’s zoned to build, and it’s right in the middle of perhaps one of New York’s best kept upstate property market secrets.

Skaneateles is an extraordinary place of its own right. If you’re looking for authentic colonial, post-colonial, and turn-of-the-century fabulous mansions, you don’t have to look far for them around here. There’s at least one place which is a virtual Addams Family home, and many others which span almost the entire history of American architecture. The lifestyle is pure modern Americana, if you’re looking for a break from Manhattan, too.

If that sounds good, about those tax breaks:

Tax allowances are created by land conservation easements applied by the landowner to the land title. Any attorney will tell you that these easements (aka property conservation easements) are very straightforward indeed. The easements assign rights over land for conservation purposes. This basically means that land is kept in pristine condition, and also passes on responsibility for land management to the local conservation authority.

This is the new and much fairer, more practical approach to land conservation management in upstate residential zones, and it’s extremely efficient. Legally, it’s a virtual no-brainer, and very easy to do. You’re basically being paid by your conservation easement tax benefits for owning this fabulous piece of land.
