Four out of five people who make New Year’s resolutions eventually break them. Many people have a hard time getting to the end of January without slacking on the goals they’ve set for themselves.

A reverse mortgage is a unique, and often misunderstood, home equity loan that has been tailored specifically for home owners over the age of 62. This type of mortgage differs from a conventional mortgage in several key ways; with the age restriction being just the first requirement of qualification.

Over the years of making mortgage payments you build up equity in your home; that equity can be withdrawn to provide you, the homeowner, with funds that can go a long way in assisting with your standard of living, lowering your medical bills, make improvements on your home, or even towards that dream vacation you’ve been putting off.

Qualifying for a conventional mortgage requires you, the borrower, to have a good debt to income ratio; that means that your income level must allow you to make the monthly mortgage payments easily, while not impacting your ability to repay other debts and bills such as car payments or utility bills. 

To qualify for a reverse mortgage you are not required to meet income eligibility guidelines; you can qualify regardless of your income levels.

In addition to being a home owner of at least 62 years of age, the borrower needs to either completely own their home outright (i.e.

no open mortgage account) or have a mortgage with a low balance. The balance must be low enough to be paid off in full at the time you close, with the proceeds from your reverse mortgage.

Another key requirement is that the home needs to be your principal residence; you cannot obtain this type of mortgage on rental properties or any other properties you may own but do not reside in.

However, you can use the money obtained from the equity to purchase additional properties.

There are no restrictions as to what the money can be spent on.

The reverse mortgage does not need to be repaid to the lender as long as you, and other approved borrowers, use the property as your primary residence. The reverse mortgage will not cover expenses such as insurance or property taxes like a conventional mortgage account would; there is no escrow account to handle those expenses.  You may also need to contact the lender to obtain a reverse mortgage quote

When the house is sold, either by yourself or your estate, the reverse mortgage will need to be paid back in full. Any remaining equity, should there be any, will be paid out to you or to your estate.

Consult with a financial advisor to find out if a reverse mortgage is the best option to meet your home equity loan needs.

Take a look at the “Reverse Mortgages” section of my website to learn about this unique type of loan that you may benefit from.

Now that the President has signed the Tax Hike Prevention Act of 2010, taxpayers will have some certainty about their tax situation, if only for the next 24 months. Here is a list of some of the biggest items that will affect individuals.

Extended income tax rates: 7.5 billion
The six federal income tax rates will remain at the same levels they are today: 10%, 15%, 25%, 28%, 33% and 35%. In addition, itemized deductions will continue to be allowed in full for higher-income taxpayers.

ATM fix: 7 billion
More than 20 million tax filers will be protected from having to pay the so-called wealth tax, otherwise known as the Alternative Minimum Tax. For tax year 2010, the bill will raise the amount of income that is exempt from the reach of the AMT to ,450 for individuals and to ,450 for couples filing jointly. In 2011, those exemption amounts will increase to ,450 and ,450 respectively. In addition, the bill will allow taxpayers to apply nonrefundable credits (which reduce one’s tax bill dollar for dollar) to their tax liability whether under the AMT or the regular tax code.

Social Security tax break: 2 billion
Workers will get a 2 percentage-point break on their payroll tax for one year. Instead of paying 6.2% on wages up to 6,800, they will only have to pay 4.2% in 2011.

What Social Security break means for your paycheck

This tax break replaces the Making Work Pay credit, which expires this year. Unlike Making Work pay, which was limited to workers making less than ,000 (0,000 for couples), the payroll tax holiday will be available to everyone who pays into Social Security.

Expanded child tax credit: billion
The bill will retain the ,000 child tax credit (up from 0 before the Bush tax cuts). It also will retain the reduced-earnings threshold, which allows more people to claim the credit as refundable. A refundable tax credit is one paid to a tax filer even if the value of the credit exceeds his tax liability. So if a filer doesn’t owe any federal income tax but qualifies for the credit, it is paid to him in the form of a refund.

Smaller estate tax: billion
Barring any changes, the estate tax in 2011 and 2012 will be reinstated at an exemption level of million and a top rate of 55%. But under the bill, the exemption level will be raised to million and the top rate lowered 35%.

Help for the jobless: billion
The unemployed will get a 13-month extension of the deadline to file for additional unemployment benefits which go as high as 99 weeks in states hit hardest by job loss.

Extended investment tax rates: billion
Everybody will get to keep their low investment tax rates for the next two years. For most people, that means their qualified capital gains and dividends will continue to be taxed at 15%.
Low-income tax filers (those in the 10% and 15% brackets), however,will continue to enjoy a 0% tax rate on their capital gains or dividends.

Marriage penalty relief: billion
Marriage will still be hard (sorry), but not because less-than-wealthy two-earner couples will owe more to the IRS than they did when they were single. The bill continues to ensure that the standard deduction for couples is exactly twice that for single filers. It also maintains an expanded 15% tax bracket so that the amount of income in that bracket for joint filers is exactly double that for single filers.

Expanded college credit: billion
Paying for college tuition in 2011 and 2012 will be made a bit easier with the retention of the American Opportunity Credit tax credit is worth up to ,500 (up to 100% of the first ,000 spent and up to 25% of the next ,500), and it may be claimed for four years’ worth of college. Eligibility to take the credit is limited to those with modified adjusted gross income below ,000 (0,000 for couples filing jointly).

Individual tax break extensions: Costs vary
The legislation will extend a number of tax breaks that have been introduced in the past few years such as the option to deduct on one’s federal return state and local sales tax instead of state and local income tax at a cost of billion. Also, it will extend a deduction for qualified tuition and other education-related expenses at a cost of .2 billion.

Less pricey extensions include a break for teachers to deduct up to 0 in classroom expenses (just under 0 million)

An accountant is a practitioner of accountancy, whose main role is to keep, audit, and inspect the financial records of individuals or business concerns and to prepare financial and tax reports. Accountancy is the measurement, disclosure or provision of assurance about financial information that helps managers, investors, tax authorities and other decision makers make resource allocation decisions. A proper accounting system is essential to any business in order to manage its daily functions and keep things running smoothly. The main tasks of an accountant include:

General Bookkeeping

This is maintaining the financial records of all types of business organisations. Accountants are also responsible for generating standard financial reports and documents. They provide assistance in the filing of bank accounts of the business, formulating a system for payments to clients and salaries of employees.

Business Tax Planning

An accountant should also provide the business with a comprehensive tax planning guidance in order to maximise business tax exemptions.

It is important to comply with government rules and regulations when setting up your own business, and hiring an accountant will be able to make this process a smooth one, enabling you to avoid wasting too much of your time and money with unnecessary complicated requirements and paperwork.

General Financial Consultancy Service

An accountant can also offer expert advice on effective management of company cash flow, price control, relevant financial options and management of inventory.

 

Technology Adoption

An accountant should be able to give useful and practical advice on the adoption of relevant software applications and business solutions that are appropriate for your type and size of business.

This means that your company can keep up to date with the demands and challenges of the business, and be competitive with the more dominant players in the business. The accountant you hire must have the working knowledge and understanding of various accounting and financial software applications and business solutions, most suitable to your business.

 

A good accountant must have strong links with major sectors in the business community. All these critical functions of the accountant imply that one must be able to perform such functions to be able to make a positive difference in the overall performance of your business organization.

 

Francis Clark also offers a broad range of accountant’s services which includes wealth management, corporate advice, personal taxation, company auditing in addition to accountant services.
