Are you finally selling your rental property? Was dealing with that last tenant just more than you can stand to go through again? Did you just hear that the vacant land next to your property will be developed into a state college causing your rental property to realize a 10-fold increase in value? Are you approaching retirement and eager to liquidate your investment in order to travel the world, or just relax and take it easy? After finding a buyer and discussing a price, you may wonder what the sale will cost you in taxes and what your after-tax cash flow will be. Before you close the sale, then, you should figure out how much of your proceeds will go to Uncle Sam and how much you will be able to keep. You want to know how much cash you can expect to flow through your hands, after paying fees, costs, and taxes. How can I figure my gain ? Is my gain taxed as ordinary income or capital gain ? How do I report the sale ? What is my after-tax cash flow ? How Can I Figure My Gain? The amount you get for your rental property is the gross sales price. The first step in calculating your taxable gain is to figure out your net sales price. 1. Subtract All Your Selling Costs from the Gross Sales Price. You'll need a copy of your closing or settlement statement at hand to help you identify the costs involved in selling the property. But don't just assume that all costs on your closing statement can be considered selling costs . Pull out any rental expenses. Your closing statement may include items that were prepaid by you, such as property taxes, insurance, or homeowner's association fees. It may also include items that remain unpaid by you as of the sale date, such as rental deposits or property management fees. These items are ordinary and necessary rental expenses that you should report as part of your rental income or loss on Schedule E rather than as part of your property sale. After filtering out the rental items, add up all the selling costs; such as: Commissions on the sale Document recording costs Legal fees related to the sale Survey fees Title fees or costs Transfer fees Now, subtract your total selling costs from your gross sales price. The result is your net sales price. For example, if you have a total selling cost of $25,400, and your gross sales price is $550,000, your net sales price is $524,600. But how much of the net sales price is your profit, or taxable gain? 2. Subtract the Cost of the Property from the Net Sales Price. To figure your profit, or taxable gain on the sale, you need to subtract the cost of the property from the net sales price. But, naturally, adding up all your costs can take a little work. You need to know how much the property has cost you, starting way back when you bought it, and proceeding through the years as you made improvements (costing your more money), or took deductions for depreciation over the years (reducing your cost). The result is called your adjusted basis, because it has been heavily adjusted over the years, and it forms the basis of any calculation of profit or loss. (For more details, see The Tax Aspects of Selling Your Home . Subtract your adjusted basis in the property from the net sales price, to get your taxable gain. Example: Sally owns a rental property that she originally purchased for $320,000 (of which the portion allocable to land is $100,000), and over the years she has taken depreciation deductions of $115,667 for this property. She is considering an offer to sell the property for $450,000. She estimates that the selling costs will include real estate commissions of 6 percent and other costs of 1 percent of the sales price. Sally's net gain on the sale would be $214,167, calculated as follows: Gross sales price $450,000 Less selling costs at 7 percent 31,500 Net sales price $418,500 Less adjusted basis: Cost basis $320,000 Less depreciation allowed 115,667 Adjusted Basis 204,333 Net gain $214,167 Is My Gain Taxed as Ordinary Income or as a Capital Gain? When you sell a property you've owned for more than a year, the gain (the selling price less your selling costs and your adjusted basis in the property) is taxed at capital gains rates, which are lower than the regular income tax rates. The particular capital gains rate that's used depends on several factors. Most capital gains on sales of rental property are taxed at 15 percent but any gains due to depreciation you have already taken are taxed at 25 percent. Ordinary income, on the other hand, can be taxed with rates as high as 35 percent in 2004. Therefore, it's important to understand how much of your gain will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates and how much will be taxed at capital gains rates. Note: The tax rates addressed here are federal taxes rates only. Any state taxes that may also be due are in addition to the federal taxes. For Property Purchased in 1987 or Later If your property was purchased in 1987 or later: all of your gain will be considered capital gain, but there's a catch: while most long-term capital gains are taxed at a maximum rate of 15 percent, any portion of your gain that's attributed to any depreciation taken on your property is taxed at a special maximum rate of 25 percent. This applies to all depreciation taken on the property. (Note: Beginning in 1987, the only kind of depreciation you could take on the property was the straight-line method). Example: Continuing our example in the last section, Sally placed her rental property into service as a rental in 1988. She decided to depreciate her property on the straight-line basis over 27.5 years, so her total depreciation deductions from 1988 through 2003 amounted to $115,667. Of her $214,167 gain, $115,667 would be taxed up to the special 25 percent capital gains rate for depreciation and $98,500 would be taxed at the 15% capital gains tax rate. For Property Purchased Before 1987 If you acquired the property before 1987, the ordinary income portion of a gain on the sale of Section 1250 property consists of any additional depreciation taken on the property. Additional depreciation is accelerated depreciation that goes beyond what the depreciation would have been if it had been calculated using the straight line method. If your property was purchased before 1987 for residential rentals, additional depreciation on property acquired before 1987 is calculated for all years after 1975. For nonresidential rentals, additional depreciation is calculated for all years after 1969. The total additional depreciation (which is taxed at ordinary income tax rates) is deducted from the net gain in order to determine the amount of the gain subject to capital gains rates. This process is what's known as depreciation recapture. Essentially, because you were able to deduct depreciation expenses from ordinary income while you owned your rental property, you now pay the price at the time of sale: part of the gain on your property is taxed at ordinary income tax rates, in this case, your additional depreciation. Example: Joe purchased his rental property in 1985 for $320,000. He depreciated his property on an accelerated basis over 18 years, resulting in total depreciation deductions of $235,000. Had he used the straight-line method to calculate depreciation, his depreciation deduction would have been $229,000. Under the rules applicable to property purchased before 1987, his additional depreciation is $6,000. Assuming he sold his property for $418,500, of his $333,500 gain, $6,000 would be taxed at his ordinary tax rates and $327,500 would be taxed as capital gain. For more information see, FAQ on Capital Gains . Giving a Nod to Section 1231 Rental real estate, held for more than one year, falls under the definition of Internal Revenue Code Section 1231 and is therefore called Section 1231 property . A gain from the sale of section 1231 property can be either ordinary income to you (as a result of additional depreciation recapture if the property was purchased before 1987) or capital gain, or both. Section 1231 gains that are not subject to depreciation recapture (which is ordinary income) are long-term capital gains. Good news: If you have a loss on the sale of Section 1231 property, the loss is an ordinary loss, meaning that it reduces your ordinary income, not your capital gains income. Section 1231 gives you the best of both worlds, because gains are long-term capital gains (after depreciation recapture) and losses are non-capital, or ordinary, losses. How do I Report the Sale? You report the sale of a rental property on IRS form 4797: Sales of Business Property. The gross sales price, cost or other basis plus expenses of sale, depreciation allowed or allowable, adjusted basis, and total gain are all reported on Page 2, Part III, lines 20 through 24. If the property is Section 1250 property (which is just about any rental property), any ordinary income recapture is calculated on line 26. The capital gains portion of your gain is determined by subtracting the additional depreciation from the total gain. These amounts are carried to page 1 of Form 4797, where this capital portion is netted with other Section 1231 transactions. Transfer the net of Section 1231 transactions from page 1 of Form 4797 to Form 1040, Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses. Put the ordinary income portion of your gain on line 14 of Form 1040, while your net capital gains from Schedule D are carried to line 13a of Form 1040. If your sale results in a loss, the entire loss is carried to line 14 on Form 1040 and is available to offset income from other sources. What is My After-Tax Cash Flow? Now that you have calculated your tax, you can calculate your net cash proceeds from the sale of the property. Enter your net sales price. Subtract any outstanding loan, to get a subtotal. Multiply the net gain (calculated in the previous example) by the capital gain rate of 25 percent on the part of the gain that represents depreciation and 15 percent on the rest of the gain. Subtract that figure from the subtotal, to see your net cash flow. Example: In our example, assume that Sally had decided she would not sell the rental property unless she could wind up with at least $200,000 cash after taxes and loan repayment. Assume she had an outstanding loan of $125,000 and other taxable income in her return. Her capital gains rates are affected by her other income. She calculates her after-tax cash flow as follows: Net sales price $418,500 Less repayment of the outstanding loan 125,000 Subtotal $293,500 Capital gains taxes at up to 25% & 15% $43,692 Net cash flow (before state taxes) $249,808 Based upon the above calculation, Sally would prefer to sell the rental property because her after-tax cash flow meets her requirements. Caution: Different states have different rules for taxing capital gains. Here, we have not considered the state tax impact. But, before making the sale, you should familiarize yourself with the state tax rules. If the property is located in a state other than your state of residence, it may be wise to study the rules of both the state in which the property is located and your state of residence, because both states may be very interested in your gain.

Buy House Plans Having

How to Buy House Plans - eHow.com Clear Instructions on How To Do (just about) Everything Web eHow.com Home Finance & Business Center Real Estate How to Buy House Plans Having trouble finding an existing house that you want to buy? Consider buying plans and building your own home. That set of blueprints, with or without minor modifications, may well be the first step you take to create your dream home. Steps: 1. Determine the size of the house you can afford to build. The National Association of Home Builders (nahb.org) has information on the average cost per square foot for new homes in any area. Multiply the square footage of the home you want by the average cost per square foot to determine a ballpark cost. 2. Draw up a detailed, prioritized list of what you want your home to include in terms of number of bedrooms and baths, and garage size. What are must-haves and what can you live without? Include outdoor features such as porches, decks and a pool. 3. Ask yourself how you want to use the house now and in the future. Do you like to entertain? Do you want a casual great room or formal dining and living rooms? Will your home eventually need to accommodate aging parents, returning adult children or grandchildren? Do you need a separate entrance for an au pair? 4. Consider your lot requirements, such as sloping, corner or zero-lot line (where one side of the house sits on one lot line). Foundation options (basement, crawlspace or slab) will be dependent on what the lot will allow, based on the grade and other factors. If you've found plans for your ideal home, buy them and then look for a lot on which that particular layout will work. Otherwise, if you find the perfect lot (see How to Buy a Lot ), you'll need to be pickier as you choose your home plans in order to be sure that they'll fit on your land. 5. Browse house plan catalogs and magazines found at home improvement stores or bookstores. Many architects offer plans for sale online. Some sites let you specify exactly what features you want, such as a certain size kitchen or number of bedrooms. 6. Evaluate the plan for overall size, traffic patterns, appealing exterior materials, efficient use of space and materials, and well-planned work and storage areas. Ask a contractor to review the blueprints as well. 7. Expect to spend anywhere from $400 to $1,300 for plans depending on the project size and level of complexity. Buy up to eight nonreproducible sets--enough to distribute to tradespeople, contractors and lenders, or one reproducible master set. 8. Hire an architect to review your plans. He or she can make any modifications you think are necessary. See How to Hire an Architect . Overall Tips: Chances are good that plans will need to be adapted to meet your family's specific needs, so don't be afraid to make modifications with the help of an architect. Seismic and local building requirements will also likely mandate changes.
