May 2010
Greetings!

Congress is considering changes to two provisions of  the real estate tax code.  The first proposed change would require owners of rental properties to file IRS 1099 forms for all contractors paid $600 or more in any given year. This provision would apply to even the smallest landlord.  In addition, Congress is considering taxing "carried interest" at ordinary income rates instead of capital gains rates. Carried interest rules govern the way general partners in real estate investments pay taxes when the investment is sold.  Contact your state Senator or Representative if you believe, like me, that any new tax burdens on real estate owners will impair and delay further recovery to the housing industry.

Sincerely,
