Red or Black maple?

It looks like Black Maple to me.

Hard to tell. Some giant has his meat hooks all in the way!

Don't know if this tree identification site will help or not. You can identify by narrowing down to the specific leaf design.

Black maple (Acer nigrum) is now considered a sub-species of sugar maple (Acer saccharum). You could make maple syrup from it if you can collect enough sap next March. Do you have more of them on your new property?
