How to deduct your moving day expenses on tax day...............
Move.Realtor.com By Mike Sheridan
You've done it. You've packed your belongings, said goodbye to friends and neighbors, moved to a new home and started your new job. So the hard work is done, right?
Not quite. There's an important item remaining: settling up with Uncle Sam.
U.S. and state tax codes are full of complicated rules, regulations and nuances that affect relocating individuals. With April 15 around the corner, it's important to obtain authoritative advice about the tax implications of moving expenses and determine how an employer's relocation disbursement can affect your income and deductible expenses.
Moving is big business: Relocation has become big business, with an estimated 40 million Americans moving every year. Increasingly, corporations are turning to tax relocation specialists because there are so many questions and subtleties involved.
For instance, if your employer provides you with a lump sum of $10,000 to cover moving costs, that amount is taxable and typically added to the individual's gross income.
Such reimbursement can place you in a higher tax bracket, says Robert Petty, director of marketing at ReloTax, (a subsidiary of Homestore.com) a financial services company. "Even relatively small errors in income tax preparation can distort gross income dramatically."
What can you write off? Deductible moving expenses can be tricky. For instance, transporting a second car or a boat could be deductible, as could expenses such as utility hook-up fees and mileage and lodging costs. It's areas like these where a tax relocation specialist can really help you.
"A local CPA firm usually isn't well versed in interstate relocation and could inadvertently take deductions that are incorrect and conceivably earmark an individual for an audit because of mistakes," explains Debbie Gioiella, director of operations at ReloTax. "That's why more and more companies are hiring professionals to work with their relocated employees."
A spokesman for one firm that uses ReloTax calls it "one of the best decisions we ever made. The company is familiar with our relocation policy and ReloTax professionals are knowledgeable with the tax laws of all states and localities. The result is we have satisfied transferred employees who can concentrate on their work and not be distracted by complexities of preparing a tax return complicated by a relocation."
One reason for this is ReloTax utilizes software that can compute multi-state taxation. "We point out all the deductions available, says Gioiella," so we have a better knowledge of what expenses can be deducted and what are the ramifications that affect each state."
More importantly, it brings tax closure to the financial aspects of the relocation process, Petty says. "It enables individuals to get on with their new job-and their new life."

If you're anything like us.... we eat out - sometimes a lot! Now that we have a newborn baby we find ourselves ordering take out or running out to dinner while "Grandma" watches the baby! I just wanted to pass along this great "Dine Out For Charity" event going on around Lake Norman! Why not eat out and support our community at the same time.... :D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Something a simple as a meal out can make a difference.
The "Dine Out for Charity" program is being launched in the Lake Norman area to benefit the Boy Scouts of America.
"The vision behind the "Dine Out for Charity" program is to encourage visitors and locals alike to dine in these restaurants and give back to the community," said Cyndi Cearbaugh, Visitor Center Coordinator for Visit Lake Norman.
Cearbaugh said restaurants in Cornelius, Davidson and Huntersville were invited to participate. Each eatery participates one day or night a week through Dec. 31, and a portion of their proceeds go to the Boy Scouts.
"The proceeds vary between each restaurant, but all donated proceeds received go directly to Lake Norman Boy Scouts, a group of 2,500 plus boys, ages 6 to 16 years, in the Hornet's Nest District of North Mecklenburg,' she said.
Visit Lake Norman's goal is to raise $500 to $1,000 in the beginning of the Dine Out project.
"The Boy Scouts of America seeks to train youth in responsible citizenship, character development, and self-reliance," Cearbaugh said. "The money raised will help Lake Norman's local Boy Scout chapters to continue providing development programs. The community's participation will be critical to the future of training the youth in building their character development and gaining self-reliance."
Make sure to mention "Boy Scouts of America" in order for the proceeds to be donated. For more information, call Visit Lake Norman at 704-987-3300.

Prepping and staging a house....
Every seller wants their home to sell fast and bring top dollar. Does that sound good to you? Well, it's not luck that makes that happen. It's careful planning and knowing how to professionally spruce up your home that will send home buyers scurrying for their checkbooks. Here is how to prep a house and turn it into an irresistible and marketable home.
Disassociate Yourself With Your Home.
Say to yourself, "This is not my home; it is a house -- a product to be sold much like a box of cereal on the grocery store shelf.
Make the mental decision to "let go" of your emotions and focus on the fact that soon this house will no longer be yours.
Picture yourself handing over the keys and envelopes containing appliance warranties to the new owners!
Say goodbye to every room.
Don't look backwards -- look toward the future.
De-Personalize.
Pack up those personal photographs and family heirlooms. Buyers can't see past personal artifacts, and you don't want them to be distracted. You want buyers to imagine their own photos on the walls, and they can't do that if yours are there! You don't want to make any buyer ask, "I wonder what kind of people live in this home?" You want buyers to say, "I can see myself living here."
De-Clutter!
People collect an amazing quantity of junk. Consider this: if you haven't used it in over a year, you probably don't need it.
Rearrange Bedroom Closets and Kitchen Cabinets.
Buyers love to snoop and will open closet and cabinet doors. Think of the message it sends if items fall out! Now imagine what a buyer believes about you if she sees everything organized. It says you probably take good care of the rest of the house as well. This means:
Rent a Storage Unit.
Almost every home shows better with less furniture. Remove pieces of furniture that block or hamper paths and walkways and put them in storage. Since your bookcases are now empty, store them. Remove extra leaves from your dining room table to make the room appear larger. Leave just enough furniture in each room to showcase the room's purpose and plenty of room to move around. You don't want buyers scratching their heads and saying, "What is this room used for?"
Remove/Replace Favorite Items.
If you want to take window coverings, built-in appliances or fixtures with you, remove them now. If the chandelier in the dining room once belonged to your great grandmother, take it down. If a buyer never sees it, she won't want it. Once you tell a buyer she can't have an item, she will covet it, and it could blow your deal. Pack those items and replace them, if necessary.
Make the House Sparkle!
Scrutinize
Check Curb Appeal.
If a buyer won't get out of her agent's car because she doesn't like the exterior of your home, you'll never get her inside.
