Does anyone recognize this tree? I can't for the life of me remember the name and it's driving me crazy! I have pictures of this plant in a folder somewhere on my laptop but I have tons of folders, all labeleled with both common and scientific names and I think the folder for this tree must have accidentally gotten put inside another folder, which has happened a time or two. I've scrolled and scrolled and finally gave up. I know I will come across it inside another folder some day but meanwhile I'm wracking my brain trying to remember the name! It's a tree that was growing here when we bought the house a little over 2 years ago and I'm wanting my husband to transplant it. The former owners planted it right up next to the house along with along with a Schefflera actinophylla that desperately needs to come out!

I took a few pictures this afternoon trying to show the growth habit, bark and leaves and I'm hoping someone can help with the identity:
