We will be closing on the sale of one of our rental properties that will result in proceeds of around $100k. Of course cap gains and depreciation recapture taxes will need to be paid from that. We do not need immediate access to these funds so we'd like to invest them. We currently have 2 tIRAs and 2 Roth IRAs (mine and DW) at Vanguard but no other investment accounts. Our ages are 60 and 58 and we'll be retired within a year, two at most.
I've been thinking that I should open a VG brokerage account for this money and invest it in a mutual fund. But is that the "right" or "best" thing to do?
Being the financial lightweight that I am I thought I would ask y'all for your opinions, which I highly respect.
