The sentence beginning with " All "

1) All you have to do is just sell off your house.

What is the Subject, Verb and Object of the above sentence? why there is " is " and " sell " next to each other?

Thanks

All you have to do -- subject is -- linking verb sell off your house -- subject complement. There is no object. This is a pseudo-cleft structure with do .
