At the risk of alienating all of my friends who oppose the estate tax, which they call the death tax, I wonder why farms and small businesses have become the poster children for abolishing (or reducing) the estate tax. Why should they get a break when people
 with investments would not? I have been administering estates for 45 years, and I have yet to encounter an estate where the estate tax was a huge burden that put the family farm or the family enterprise out of business. I think it is a myth to argue that family
 farms and family businesses are at risk.<br>

Thanks so much for working on this. I am so hoping that Washington state will go back to dovetailing with the federal state law. Just not fair for those with small family owned businesses<br>

At the risk of alienating all of my friends who oppose the estate tax, which they call the death tax, I wonder why farms and small businesses have become the poster children for abolishing (or reducing) the estate tax. Why should they get a break when people
 with investments would not? I have been administering estates for 45 years, and I have yet to encounter an estate where the estate tax was a huge burden that put the family farm or the family enterprise out of business. I think it is a myth to argue that family

Phil, you are a brave soul to jump into this one with both feet.<br>
<br>
Easy for me to say, because I agree with you. Only 20 years as a lawyer, but same experience?with one almost-exception I vaguely remember when I was a paralegal in the 90s, when the estate tax threshold was $1 million and the family?s business was worth quite
 a bit more than that but didn?t have the cash available to pay. But if I remember correctly, they paid instead under a multiyear installment plan that I think was built into the tax regs as an option. And that was within their cash flow, so there was no jeopardy
 of actually going out of business.<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>

I?m with you. I get that no one ?likes: to pay taxes, but I have always felt that among alternatives, taxing what I leave behind when I die is one of the lesser concerns in my life. And how many millions do the kids really ?need? to inherit tax-free. My point
 of view is not too popular with some of my wealthier clients and friends, but I?ve lived in countries with a real social safety net, paid for with taxes, and I didn?t hate it. ?<br>
<br>
I have seen kids sell family businesses when parents die, taxes were usually not the reason.<br>

<br>
At the risk of alienating all of my friends who oppose the estate tax, which they call the death tax, I wonder why farms and small businesses have become the poster children for abolishing (or reducing) the estate tax. Why should they get a break when people
 with investments would not? I have been administering estates for 45 years, and I have yet to encounter an estate where the estate tax was a huge burden that put the family farm or the family enterprise out of business. I think it is a myth to argue that family
 farms and family businesses are at risk.<br>

I?m with you. I get that no one ?likes: to pay taxes, but I have always felt that among alternatives, taxing what I leave behind when I die is one of the lesser concerns in my life. And how many millions do the kids really ?need? to inherit tax-free. My point
 of view is not too popular with some of my wealthier clients and friends, but I?ve lived in countries with a real social safety net, paid for with taxes, and I didn?t hate it. ?<br>
<br>
I have seen kids sell family businesses when parents die, taxes were usually not the reason.<br>

Colleagues,<br>
<br>
A client in a probate proceeding that I am handling is seeking to obtain financing to purchase real property from the estate. He reports he is running into difficulty because lenders are reluctant to lend on a property that has a manufactured home on it. Has
 anyone run into this before? Are you aware of any resources or lenders willing to lend on a property with a manufactured home?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
<br>
