The web site also allows visitors to search for temporary housing and provides other useful resources and links designed to help victims recover from the storm. To provide a listing of an available property, please read the instructions under "List a Rental Property" . To begin searching listings, click on the DHRonline logo below. The goal of HurricaneHousing.net is to gather rental housing information and coordinate with our partners "Disaster Housing Resources" — DHRonline.org. DHR is a unique program that provides, in an easily accessible web site, immediately available rental properties — housing resources that can provide disaster victims with safety and peace of mind while their home is repaired or a new home is constructed. HurricaneHousing.net was initiated by Lafayette-area realtors led by Bill Bacqué of VanEaton & Romero, Inc. in Lafayette and Patrick Caffery of Caffery Real Estate in New Iberia. The group turned to the Louisiana REALTORS® and also received help from Lafayette-based technology companies, CBM Technology headed by Chad Theriot, F6Media and Technology experts from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) , the U.S. Department of Homeland Security , Disaster Housing Resources and the National Association of REALTORS® . “It’s our hope that this site can be another resource to those in such great need right now,” said Louisiana REALTORS® CEO Malcolm Young.

Rental income must be reported on your tax return, and generally, associated expenses can be deducted from your rental income. Reviewing answers to the following common questions regarding rental property may help you understand the tax implications of rental property ownership: What is considered rental income? What deductions can I take as an owner of rental property? What are some things I should know about rental property? Contact your local Jackson Hewitt office for more information or assistance. Use the Office Locator feature available on this Web site or call 1-800-234-1040 to find the Jackson Hewitt location most convenient to you. What is considered rental income? Rental income is any income you receive for the use or occupancy of property you own. Some examples are: Rent Payment to cancel a lease Advance rent Expenses paid by the tenant Any security deposit kept because a tenant did not fulfill their part of the rental agreement Do not include: A security deposit you are holding with the intent of returning it to the tenant at the end of the lease Income received from renting your home for fewer than 15 days per year Back to Top What deductions can I take as an owner of rental property? Deductible expenses for rental property are the ordinary and necessary expenses to manage, conserve, and maintain your property. Deductible expenses include: Advertising in the newspaper for tenants and cost of signs Cleaning supplies Real estate taxes Mortgage and other interest paid for the rental property Cost of insurance-hazard, flood, fire, or liability Payments for service such as lawn care, pest control, and trash collection Payments for maintenance of the property Professional fees for tax advice and tax return preparation fees for the part of the tax return dealing with rental property Cost of new locks and keys Commissions paid for finding tenants Cost of necessary transportation to and from the rental property for the purpose of maintenance, management, rent collection, picking up supplies, or checking the property (if you use your personal vehicle, either keep track of actual expenses and miles traveled or just the miles traveled) Cost of repairs and maintenance (not improvements) to keep your property in good condition (this includes items such as repainting and fixing floors and windows) Cost of renting equipment used for the rental property Depreciation of the property (not including the land) Depreciation of appliances, furnishings, and improvements Any long distance calls associated with your rental property The court costs for evicting a tenant Legal fees pertaining to the rental property or tenants Utilities Expenses incurred when the property is not rented as long as you are actively trying to rent the property (even if you are renting it for the first time) You cannot deduct: Rental income lost due to vacancy The cost of improvements which increase the value and/or extend the life of the property or modify it for a new use (includes such things as a room addition, new carpet, new appliances, fencing, or a new roof - these items can generally be depreciated) Back to Top What Are Some Things I Should Know About Rental Property? If you rent only part of your property, certain expenses must be divided between the part used as rental property and the part used for personal purposes. If you do not rent your property for profit, you can deduct your rental expenses only up to the amount of your rental income. When rental property is sold, the resulting gain or loss is treated as ordinary or capital, depending on the circumstances. The rental of personal property such as equipment or vehicles is reported as business income. You are in the business of renting personal property if the primary purpose for renting the property is income or profit and you are involved in the activity on a continuous and regular basis. If your rental of personal property is not a business, other rules for reporting will apply. Losses from residential rental properties are subject to certain limitations. If you are considered a real estate professional, special rules apply for the reporting of income and losses. For more information, contact your local Jackson Hewitt Tax Service office. Back to Top Back to Tax Topics Tax Tips CASUALTY AND THEFT LOSS - AUTO If you have been involved in an automobile accident, the damage to your car may be considered a casualty loss. This would apply if the loss were not due to your negligence or the negligence of someone driving your vehicle. The loss must first be reduced by any insurance or other reimbursement plus $100, and then by 10% of your adjusted gross income. home | about us | tax news | tackle your taxes | learn & earn | own a franchise | work with us | privacy/terms of use © 2004 Jackson Hewitt Inc.

CYPRUS in BRIEF History The strategic position of the country, at the crossroads of three continents has probably been the main reason for its turbulent history throughout the ages. Many different races, the main ones being the Egyptians, Romans, Byzantines, Francs, Venetians, Turks and British, have occupied the island. Although each one of these conquerors left their mark on the island, the Greek identity has been preserved throughout the ages. In 1960, it gained independence under the London-Zurich agreement. But freedom was short-lived. In 1974, after an abortive coup d'etat, Turkey invaded and occupied 38% of the island's territory in the north. Although, the problem has not yet been resolved, political and economic stability were fully restored soon after the invasion. Geography Considered a European country, it is situated in the eastern region of the Mediterranean at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa. The island's total area is 9251 square kilometres while the island time zone is exactly 2 hours ahead of London and 7 hours behind Tokyo. The landscape is one of infinite contrasts, from its fertile central plain to the cool, vine clad foothills; the majesty of the cedar valley in which wild indigenous moufflon roam; mile after mile of sandy shores with secluded beaches to seek out, and hundreds of villages to explore, each with its own tradition and charm. Climate This beautiful country enjoys perhaps the best type of Mediterranean climate with about 340 warm and sunny days. Summer is the season of constant sunshine and cloudless skies. Winters are mild with some rain, and snowfall on Troodos Mountains. Maximum mean temperatures range from 14C or 57F in January to 37C or 99F in July and August. Standard and Cost of living Cyprus enjoys a fairly high European standard of living, while at the same time remains a relatively inexpensive country. According to a survey conducted by the Union Bank of Switzerland it is ranked as the 10th least expensive business centre in the world and the least expensive in the whole of Europe. Real Estate a non Cypriot is allowed to buy in Cyprus A non-Cypriot is allowed to buy a flat, house or a plot of land not exceeding two donums, 2676 square metres. However, in case there is a special reason and you need more than the law states, permission may be granted. Freehold All the properties for sale in Cyprus are freehold. Currency The currency is the Pound, which is sub-divided into 100 cents. As from June 1992, the exchange rate of the currency has been pegged to the ECU. The margin within which the currency is allowed to fluctuate has been fixed at 2.25% above or below the central value, 1.7068 ECU. Cyprus property is available to suit a wide range of investment budgets.
