- No Stepped-up Basis For Estate Inheritors Of Those Dying In 2010
By: Shane Flait | - Up until 2010, property owned by a decedent at the time of death of his death had its tax basis changed from what the decedent's basis was to its fair market value - whichever was higher. For the year 2010 - and only that year - the law has been changed to 'whatever is lower'.
This change will generally cost inheritors of decedents who die in 2010 more taxes down the line - especially for those inheriting houses. Here's why.
Over the long run, most equities tend to incr ...

- How To Buy Property Using Other Peoples Money
By: Javaid Kiyani | - Purchasing property without the use of your own capital is not difficult as long as you are able to learn different strategies.
Typically, the easiest property to buy no money down is the one which has been on the market for a long term. Long term here would mean several months. Generally, the longer the period of time a property has been on the market for, the more motivated the seller becomes. Hence, it becomes easier to negotiate a lower price and hence get a good deal.

- How We Have High Property Taxes In Texas
By: Curtis Reddehase | - Why do so many people blame the county appraisal districts in Texas for increasing market values and raising property taxes in the state? The current property tax system in Texas grew out of major legislative reforms passed by the Texas Legislature in 1979. That year, the passage of Senate Bill 621 enacted sweeping changes to a 140 year old property tax system that up until then had not had major revisions. The new laws established one central appraisal district in each county; required apprai ...

- What Is Equity Stripping In Foreclosure?
By: Dave Dinkel | - Equity stripping is the act of taking money out of the value of a home over what is owed to all the lenders combined. The simplest example is when a homeowner gets a Home Equity Line of Credit ("HELOC") in addition to his mortgage. This amount usually takes the remaining equity to 10% or 20% of the fair market value ("FMV") of the property. If the FMV of the property declines by 10%, there may not be any remaining equity in the home, and with another 5% market decline, the homeowner will be "ups ...

- Commercial Property Market Value Directs Investments
By: Andrew Stratton | - When looking at an investment, it is important that you consider its commercial property market value.

- Determining Commercial Property Market Value
By: Andrew Stratton | - Here in the United States, "fair market value" on any item is determined by what a buyer is willing to pay a seller for the item.

While real estate also has a fair market value, it is a bit harder to determine because of all the factors which go into the valuation. A property, unlike the simple stick of ...
