Don't Let Your Short Sale Leave You Taxed!

If you, or someone you know, owe more on your home than it's worth and need to sell NOW is the time to contact me!  Time is running out to save yourself from what could be a significant tax implication in the future.

In 2007, the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act was passed in an attempt to help the millions of homeowners who, due to the housing crisis and economic crash, suddenly found themselves in danger of losing their home to foreclosure.

The act has helped many distressed homeowners find solutions that help them avoid foreclosure and opened up options to them that were previously unavailable.

However, the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act was always intended to be a temporary solution and it is now set to expire at the end of 2013. For distressed homeowners, this means that time is running out for them to take advantage of the program and potentially save themselves tens of thousands of dollars.

If you know of anyone who may need my expertise, please have them visit my website www.HomesByCindyB.com for a copy of my recent report entitled “Don’t Let Your Short Sale Leave You Taxed”  or you can contact me for a copy.

And then contact me for a confidential consultation today so we can get started!

Underwater Homeowners Breathe a Sigh of Relief as Congress Renews Mortgage Debt Relief Act!

On January 1, 2013, Congress passed an extension of the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act. This extension of this act, which has saved homeowners more than $1 billion dollars in taxes, is great news for struggling homeowners nationwide.

The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act was originally passed in 2007 to aid the millions of homeowners who suddenly found themselves in danger of losing their homes to foreclosure following the housing market crash.

Under the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act, any debt forgiven in a short sale, foreclosure, or loan modification, is exempt from federal taxes on primary residences. For homeowners facing foreclosure, this exemption saves them from paying thousands, or even tens of thousands, in taxes on top of losing their homes.

Now for another year, homeowners can take advantage of this exemption and avoid foreclosure without the fear of an impossible tax liability.
