It's a
myth ... there is no federal sales tax on home sales
An Internet rumor continues to spread false information about a supposed
tax on home sales. The erroneous e-mail claims that a provision of the
healthcare reform bill passed earlier this year will place a tax on "all
real estate transactions" in 2013. Not true.
The e-mail includes a guest editorial in a Spokane newspaper with the
false claim. It doesn't, however, mention the corrected information sent
to the newspaper the next day from the local association of REALTORS®.

Federal
tax credit still an option for some buyers
The
federal tax-credit deadline to have a house under contract has come and
gone for most homebuyers, but not all.
Members of the military who have served outside the U.S. for at least 90
days between Dec. 31, 2008, and May 1, 2010, have until April 30, 2011,
to enter into a contract on a home,
according to the IRS.
The IRS also makes clear that only one spouse of a married couple need
meet that overseas requirement for either spouse to be eligible for the
deadline extension. |
