DanceMachine asked:


I was curious about capital gains tax on owner occupied residences in California. Is Obama working on trying to use this form of tax a private residences instead of only second homes and income property in the near future? I have heard this may happen. Any insight is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

richard h asked:


Who would I use to appraise a home if I want to get a low value? This would be for lower property and estate tax. I know that if I just call a real estate agent they might be likely to inflate the value as their job is too make the house worth more to get a morgage.

Kat asked:


I bought a home in 2008 and received a “refund” check for $7325 as I was a first time buyer. Does this money need to be paid back? Or not, as is the case with the 2009 first time homeowners credit.

Super Mom asked:


Supposing someone makes $100K a year and has about $25K in qualifying deductions (mortage interest and real estate taxes), how much total federal taxes should be taken out per year?

Married individual with one child, spouse doesn’t work.

Thanks!

I’ve read and understand the gift and estate tax issues, I’m just trying to figure out who I have to contact - or is it as simple as transferring a car title?

Dharma bums asked:


I know that millionaires are around the the 90th percentile in America, but wealth tends to increase as people age, and people tend to die old. So: if the estate tax is 1 million dollars per year, what percentage of estates will likely be affected? I know this takes a little number-crunching, but I think this number is crucial to the discussion, and I haven’t been able to find it anywhere. Good sourcing isn’t necessary, but I’ll appreciate it greatly.

I’m looking to see your forecast on what will happen to prices. There are a lot of houses on the market and I picture them to drop quite a bit. Any percentage amount you’re predicting?

I always felt it was hypocritical of him to claim that the rich don’t pay their fair share. Is there any question that he didn’t benefit directly from the same tax loopholes publicly railed against?
