chinookpilot77 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I am purchasing just over 20 acres near Dallas, TX where my residence will be located and also a large barn where I'd love to start my distilling operation. In the CFR, it states shed, yard, etc is prohibited, but surely there has to be an exception for other farm based distilling operations out there. Could I deed over the barn and a couple acres to the LLC? Any thoughts on how to navigate this first hurdle? Thank you very much! Chinook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrounge Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 You don't have to deed it. Just lease it to the LLC. Save yourself the hasle and $ of subdividing. Read the reg again, as long as it is well separated your fine. Can't be attached. The more clearly separated the better. Also call the Ttb and describe your layout to them for a more definitive answer. Scrounge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrounge Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 You might have trouble with the barn thing as far as security goes though, depending on how awesome your barn is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinookpilot77 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 My barn is a newer style pole barn with two overhead doors and it's at least 300 yards from the earth sheltered home. No way to attach a barn to a hobbit hole that I'm aware of! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silk City Distillers Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Don't know if you have one or not, but subdividing mortgaged properties can be a big challenge. It may require multiple mortgages or a restructure of the existing mortgage with cash-in to reflect the reduced collateral on the property that retained the residence. Also check with your local zoning to understand if the subdivision/lease arrangement will be acceptable in your current zone. They may require you to seek additional variances if not.
