By: LOTAG, Inc. NOT IN CALIFORNIA. I repeat – not in California. This article does not mention the huge California exception which misleads everyone in California reading the article. They are not the only ones. I daily seem to read articles which don’t properly explain the situation for California homeowners. I will try to explain in the simplest terms why California homeowners have the best laws in the country and will most likely NOT owe any debt forgiveness income tax after a short sale. First let me state that there are other exceptions to this crazy tax the IRS and state taxing bureaus want people to pay. Bankruptcy and insolvency are exceptions but I will not get into those exceptions in this article due to space constraints – and I don’t want to bore you to death. In December 2013 the California Association of Realtors and Senator Barbara Boxer announced in a press release that the IRS and the California Franchise Tax Board (California’ The national media seems to ignore this when doing their reporting most likely because it is a very complicated subject and it’s easier to paint with a broad brush. I have even talked to tax preparers who still haven’t received the great tax news regarding California short sales. Needless to say you should talk to an expert in this area and do NOT accept legal advice from a realtor. Realtors are not allowed to give legal advice and when dealing with a short sale it’s almost ALL legal. Most homeowners are very concerned about things such as: what if my bank sues me, can they garnish my paychecks, what about my retirement accounts, will I ever be able to buy another house, etc… If you have any questions or concerns about your own personal situation I would be happy to give you a FREE one on one legal consultation and if I help you with your short sale you pay me nothing.
