Daily Real Estate News | Wednesday, February 15, 2012

Tax time is nearing and once more rumors are circulating on the Internet and by e-mail that the health care reform law enacted two years ago includes a 3.8 percent transfer tax on real estate starting in 2013. That rumor is not true; NAR has material available to you to explain how that 3.8 percent tax works. It’s a tax on a very narrow band of investment income for high-wealth households (those who earn $250,000 in a joint return or $200,000 as an individual) that could come into play on the sale of a house if the sales gain is more than $500,000 for a married couple or $250,000 for an individual.

Even in the unlikely event the sales gain is more than that amount, the tax would only apply based on other considerations having to do with the household’s income and tax situation. The bottom line is that the tax, which was imposed to help shore up Medicare, will hit only some portion of investment income. Download a free brochure on how the tax works. Video and explanatory article.

Wholly Cannoli is Like Heaven in a Box!

Be Warned! When you walk into Wholly Cannoli Café in Aurora, Colorado, your nose will go into overdrive from all of the fabulous smells, your mouth will start to water and your eyes will not be able to look away from the incredible freshly made desserts tempting you from behind the glass pastry shelves.

Everything is made from scratch. The pizza is absolutely wonderful as well as the other Italian dishes. The fresh made French bread is crunchy and delicious. The desserts, well that is a whole separate story.

I was having guest over a few days ago and stopped by Wholly Cannoli to pick up something sweet. I couldn’t control myself. I bought chocolate eclairs, cream puffs and napolian. When I served up dessert that night, my guest thought I was crazy for buying so much. It is funny how there was nothing left on their plate as they ate and complained between bites about how much I bought. When they finished, they went on and on about how wonderful each decadent bite was.

Wholly Cannoli is located at 22691 E. Aurora Parkway in Aurora, Colorado just off of E470 and Gartrell Rd. If you are passing by and your nose starts to twitch, you might as well given in and stop by for a tasty morsel or two.

Sorrel Ranch - Roosevelt Model

Sorrel Ranch - Roosevelt

Wendy & Ed really liked my listing at Sorrel Ranch, but wanted to see a few resale homes to compare but after a weekend, saw the value Lennar has to offer with their EVERYTHING INCLUDED pricing!

This two story beauty was sold by Joan Cox and the buyers will enjoy nearly 2,500 finished square feet and have over 1,000 more square feet if they decide to finish off their basement. The landscaping will be done for them, along with the fencing and sprinklers. The A/C, all appliances including the washer/dryer and all window coverings were included. This was exactly what they were looking for with their VA loan, and not much cash on hand! It was perfect, and the smiles from ear to ear at closing said it all! JUST SOLD

There are other ready to move in homes available in Sorrel Ranch if you would like to see any of the other homes.
