Real Estate Tips
Tax Considerations >Taxable Profits

If you are thinking of selling your home and your house has risen in value since you purchased it, or you have accumulated a lot of deferred profit from previous sales, the Taxpayer Relief Act passed in 1997 could be of tremendous value.

Prior to this law, when a homeowner moved to a smaller home, relocated to a less costly area, or made a decision to rent, they were left with unfavorable tax consequences. The old tax law allowed people who sold their homes to defer tax on any profit by buying a replacement home of at least equal value within two years. At age 55, they could permanently escape tax on up to $125,000 of profit, but any profit in excess of that amount was taxable unless a new home was bought.

The good news is that with homes sold after May 6, 1997, homeowners can make as much as $500,000 tax-free profits on the sale of a principal residence for joint filers or $250,000 for single filers. The $500,000 capital gains exclusion removed taxes as a consideration for most home sellers by giving them flexibility to trade up or down. It has also allowed homeowners to preserve the savings value of a home when they sell, provided they use the property as their principal residence for two of the prior five years prior to the sale.

Consult your tax advisor for your particular circumstance.

Born and raised in Co. Leitrim, Ireland I grew up on a dairy farm and was the youngest of six children. I went to elementary school in a two-room schoolhouse and later cycled six miles to and from high school each day! Life was simple, and my after school activities consisted of helping on the farm with feeding the calves, milking the cows and picking vegetables and turf for the fire. I was very connected to nature at the time! I can remember back to when the first electric light was installed in our house and when my father got his first car- it was a Ford! Both of these events were major milestones in my life and all of my childhood experiences have made me who I am today.

For the last 20 years I have dedicated myself to making the emotions of real estate and the moving process as painless as possible. I pride myself in listing, selling, marketing, negotiating and closing the best deals for my clients. I am established leader in Fairfield County Real Estate. I have been a consistent top producer ranking #1 in both units sold and closed dollar volume for the past 20 years. I believe that real estate is all about family and having built my business by being known as “The Matchmaker” – Matching Homes with Families and Families with Homes, I have proven success. I cover everything from the first-time buyer and renter to luxury homes and waterfronts along with condo and commercial developing. I feel as though my diversity allows me to understand and best suit my clients growing needs. I also believe in a strong work ethic and commitment to clear and effective communication.
