Rental Income From Real Property to file 1099s with the IRS

Small Business Jobs Act enacts new provision: 1099s will be required for 2011 payments

The recently enacted Small Business Jobs Act includes a provision related to reporting requirements of rental property expense payments. After Dec. 31, 2010, the new law requires those who receive rental income from real property to file 1099s with the IRS for service providers such as plumbers, painters and accountants, who receive more than $600 in payments over the course of the year. Even though the 1099 forms will not need to be issued until early in 2012, it will be necessary to begin keeping track of payment information on Jan. 1, 2011, and to collect completed w-9 forms from service providers to obtain their names, addresses and taxpayer identification numbers.   Exceptions are provided for individuals renting their principal residences (including active members of the military), taxpayers whose rental income doesn’t exceed an IRS-determined minimal amount, and those for whom the reporting requirement would create a hardship (under IRS regulations). 

Included in the provision is an increase in penalties for failure to file 1099s with the IRS. For further information, contact your tax accountant

Emerald Coast Real Estate Foreclosures Will Impact 2011 Prices

Foreclosures and Short Sales Will Be In Play Again Next Year

I recently came across this recent article and I think it supports my belief that Destin Real Estate Market and the Panama City Beach Real Estate Market will both continue to feel the effects of Foreclosures and Short Sales in 2011

Foreclosures Still Driving Down Sales, Prices
Sales of foreclosures were about 25 percent of all U.S. residential sales in the third quarter. The average sale price of a foreclosure was $169,523, or 32 percent below the average price of properties not in foreclosure.

A total of 188,748 properties in some state of foreclosure sold during the third quarter. That was 25 percent fewer than were sold in the second quarter and about 31 percent fewer than were sold in the same quarter of 2009.

Here are the 10 states with the highest percentage of foreclosure sales:

· Nevada, 54 percent
· Arizona 47 percent
· California 40 percent
· Florida 37 percent
· Massachusetts, 35 percent
· Michigan 32 percent
· Georgia, 29 percent
· Oregon, 27 percent
· Idaho 25, percent
· Illinois 25, percent

Mortgages Are Getting More Expensive!

Getting A Mortgage?  Don’t Wait Too Long

I saw this reported by Inman News and it tells me that people thinking about buying second homes at the beach should take advantage of the still low cost of money before it’s too late. 

Mortgage Rates Continue Upward Climb
Freddie Mac reported that fixed-rate mortgages rose for a third consecutive week during the period ended Dec. 2.

· Interest on 30-year loans inched up to 4.46 percent from 4.4 percent.

· Rates on 15-year mortgages averaged 3.81 percent, an increase from 3.77 percent a week ago.

Adjustable-rate mortgages were slightly higher as well:

· One-year ARM rose up to 3.25 percent from 3.23 percent

· Five-year ARM moved up to 3.49 percent compared to 3.45 percent.

Hungry for Seaside Homes, Buyers Get Edged Out

Here is a small article I saw recently from the Miami Herald and I think you can make the same argument for Watercolor Homes and Condos For Sale, and Watersound Homes and Condos For Sale and Seaside Homes For Sale

Hungry for Homes, Buyers Get Edged Out

As South Florida’s home sales have continued to outpace national trends, distressed properties are still dominating the market, with more than half of all homes and condos sold last month at some stage in the foreclosure process. And cash-happy investors have been scooping up these bargain basement deals at a fast clip, often before middle-income buyers can get financing. [Source: Miami Herald]
