New IRS Rules for "Small" Landlords

By
Real Estate Agent with Re/Max Masterpiece Realty

If you own even one rental property, you are just going to become a little bit more busy this year. Whenever you use contractor to work on the property and you pay him ( her) $600 or more, you have to send this contractor IRS 1099 form. So, now you will have to obtain from your contractor name and social security number or other tax identification , keep record and at the beginning of 2012  send document. There are some exceptions to the requirement and I am sure if you visit IRS web-site, you will find those. Also there will be penalties from government if you file late or you fail to file at all. GOOD LUCK.

I am not tying to be 'Political on Active Rain .If I am, I try to keep my blogs and comments clean and respectful. But I have VERY STRONG VIEWS and totally disagree with Fred Griffin. This country is being destroyed by "garbage "on the RIGHT side of the isle. And I do agree that left side is not doing a good job, but that is only because there is really nothing "left" in their policy. Real Liberals and Democrats are our ONLY HOPE and our-I mean middle class, working families. And if somebody who sells Real Estate thinks that "Left" kills small businesses - thnk again. If "Right " gets all power , we will end up with people working in Walmart, Wallgreens, etc for $8.00 an hour, part time with no health insurance . Try to get loan for somebody like that. Again - I am sorry to write all that but I felt I needed to make my position clear..............
