Staging To Sell
When you buy a home, it’s the visuals that count. To sell your home faster you may want to stage your furniture and belongings to help give your home more personality. Generally, a less cluttered space is more appealing when you’re selling a home.
Staging Bathrooms And Bedrooms
Staging your home can help it sell faster. Two of the easiest rooms to stage are bedrooms and bathrooms. Buy matching towels, comforter sets, and lampshades for your bedrooms and bathrooms, and you’ll be set to sell your home.
More Help To Pay Your Tax Debt
The new Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007, signed into law at the tail end of last December, is supposed to provide some relief to those who sell their homes short — that is, sell for less than the mortgage amount. Also, the law provides if the taxpayer is insolvent to the extent of the amount of debt, a short sale would not be taxable income. You may seek other help if you owe a tax debt. Although the IRS cannot touch your retirement savings they may suggest getting tax debt help by borrowing against them.
