Temporary Tax Breaks

admin — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 03:03:53 +0000

In early 2009 Congress passed a Temporary Economic Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009. This nearly $800 billion stimulus package offers wonderful temporary tax incentives. Many of the incentives that are presently set to expire at the year of the year include the following credits/deductions/incentives:

The First-Time Homebuyers Tax Credit: First time home buyers (taxpayers) are eligible for (up to) $8,000 in tax credits when they purchase a new home between January 1, 2009 and November 30, 2009. The home buyers can file an amendment to their 2008 tax return (as an effort to receive their refund earlier). This tax credit is not available to ALL first time buyers. It’s only available to “buyers” who fall under the specified income restrictions.
The Motor Vehicle Sales Tax Deduction: Taxpayers who purchase a new automobile between the months of February 17, 2009 and December 31, 2009 may take an extra standard deduction (local & state) based on the purchase price of the automobile. The amount of the deduction is limited to the portion of the state sales or tax on the first $49,500 of the purchase price of the automobile. Residents who live in states that do not have state sales tax offer individuals several deduction alternatives.
COBRA Premium Assistance: This assistance is strictly available to individuals who were laid off from their jobs between September 1, 2008 and December 31, 2009. These individuals must fall under the specified income restrictions. Individuals who qualify are able to apply for (up to) 9 months of COBRA assistance under the 2009 Recovery Act. Individuals pay 35% of the COBRA premium and employers must treat that as full payment. Employers claim a credit for the other 65% of the premium on their payroll tax returns.
Economic Recovery Payments: This is a $250.00 payment to disabled veterans, taxpayers on fixed income, and for those who are currently receiving Social Security Benefits. In May 2009 the Social Security Administration began sending these payments via mail and direct deposit.
Exclusion of Unemployment Benefits: Individuals receiving unemployment benefits in 2009 can exclude the first $2,400 from their income. This exclusion is only available for 2009.
Tax Evasion Forgiveness: The IRS is encouraging taxpayers to give the government full disclosure on all foreign bank accounts and unreported assets. The IRS agrees not to criminally prosecute tax evaders (and will waive the 75% “fraud” penalty). The taxpayer that falls under this stimulus is responsible for paying back all taxes plus interest and penalties. The IRS agrees not to prosecute. This relief expires September 23, 2009.

The State of Georgia also passed the Georgia Homebuyer Credit, which targets distressed properties. Hopefully, if you live in Atlanta, you’ll be able to take advantage of some of the federal and state tax breaks to offset the massive tax increase the City of Atlanta recently passed.

Dunwoody Real Estate Search

Administrator — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 22:55:18 +0000

I just put up a Dunwoody real estate search page. I grew up, graduated high school and my parents still live in Dunwoody. I know the area quite well. Dunwoody is one of the first suburbs out from Atlanta, so you get the benefit of a short commute coupled with more space for your money.

There is a big disparity in the Dunwoody schools, which can have a huge reflection on property values. If the property price seems too good to be true, chances are it’s in a bad school district. Whether you have kids or not, schools can have a huge effect on the resale value of your home. I can help advise you on the caliper of the various Dunwoody schools.

If you are interested in looking at some Dunwoody homes, please feel free to call me.

About Dunwoody Georgia
Dunwoody is the most recent Metro Atlanta community to incorporate as a city. Dunwoody lies at the northern tip of DeKalb County, bounded by the Fulton County line on the north and west, Interstate 285 on the south, Peachtree Industrial Boulevard on the southeast, and Gwinnett County on the northeast. Officially, the city limit extends only to the DeKalb County line in the north. However, as far back as the 1960s, the area known as Dunwoody extended as far west as GA-400 and north to the Chattahoochee River. Thus, many residents of the narrow panhandle of Sandy Springs consider themselves a part of Dunwoody. My parents fall into this category, as we always thought we lived in Dunwoody until the City of Sandy Springs boundaries were drawn. Ironically, Dunwoody Country Club is now located in Sandy Springs.

As of the 2000 census, 32,808 people were living in Dunwoody. It’s one of the wealthiest cities in Georgia with a median family income of $100,796.
