Tax Turkeys

Services for Real Estate Pros with Think Glink Media

This holiday, the only turkey you encounter should be on your plate, covered in cranberry sauce. Tax expert Eva Rosenberg has heard plenty of bogus tax advice over the years, and she shares which "tax turkeys" to avoid this season. Her advice? If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Here are her top tax schemes to avoid: 


  1. Fund your business with tax-free money from your IRA. 
  2. Transfer your assets to a religious organization.
  3. Fight your taxes as not being legal.
  4. Have your business write off all your personal expenses.


    To read more about each of these schemes and how to avoid them, read Eva's full blog at http://tiny.cc/8fykt

I started our tax planning in Sept * bought an iPAD for my business and upgraded some business software.  I'll improve our rental property and pay expenses before the end of the year and pre-pay some real property taxes if necessary....having investment rental property REALLY helps!
