K: transfer due to divorce. L: transfer of property that is partially personal property and partially real property. M: certain first-time property buyers (applies to the first $400,000).

The above explanations are abbreviated because the language explaining these exemptions is too lengthy to print in this section every week. If you're curious about a certain exemption, go to the Nantucket Islands Land Bank Web site for complete information on the exemptions and the land bank's governing bylaws: http://www.nantucketlandbank.org.
