He is swapping the planned materials, and HVAC machinery to lower costs without my agreement.

Hi BP community, Our family has been leasing a small space in Southern California since mid 2018 for our e-commerce retail business (selling heavy machineries to  end users nationwide).

I've heard you have to be choosey with what you buy, i wanted to buy some heavy machinery and shipping containers this year (which i thought would be relevant), but not sure about a truck or tools.

That's the value of the business component of the sale.In larger companies (roughly $10M+) , there is a different method called EBITDA - earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.To that SDE value, we add the value of assets (vehicles, machinery, etc) and real estate, if any is to transact. 

Move the building machinery and equipment up off the lowest floor and you’ll get a break too.

All my business loans to date have been built out or for machinery, not for a house.

If it’s like a MN farm it will be a tiny percent if it’s only housing or a section (640 acres) but a much larger percent if it’s housing plus grain or machinery storage on a quarter (160 acres) usually 3-10 acres can be included with the buildings if it isn’t production land. 

When reading through the proposition before I misread the exclusion for agricultural land to mean there was an exception for farmers, when in reality agricultural property (machinery, storage facilities, etc.) would still be subject to the tax increase, which would end up being substantial.

With all of that said I’m really good with machinery (backhoe, trackhoe, trenchers, direction boring, skid steer, etc) I’m also pretty handy when it comes to work around the house.

The most common examples are durable lab equipment, vehicles, machinery, buildings, furniture, and computer software.Buildings, vehicles and machinery are specificclly excluded.
