IRS Letters
& IRS Liens 
Tampa

A federal tax lien arises when a tax return is filed and the tax isn’t paid after a demand for payment has been made.
 
By law, the lien is in favor of the United States and is upon all property and rights to property of the person with the unpaid tax. It gives the IRS the authority to seize any proceeds from sales of real estate owned by a delinquent taxpayer.
 
To protect the government’s right of priority against other parties who are owed money by the same person, the IRS will file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien, which puts other creditors on notice about the IRS’s claim.

Wage Garnishments Tampa

IRS wage garnishment is the deduction of money from an employee’s monetary compensation resulting from unpaid IRS taxes.  Most likely this should not be a surprise as the IRS will only levy one’s wages after repeated letters and warnings about the taxes owed.

 

This is one of the IRS’s most aggressive tax collection mechanisms and should not be taken lightly.  The IRS would rather resolve taxes in a different manner but they will levy when they feel they have run out of other options. It is important to understand how garnishments work to ensure you take the appropriate actions to avoid them or stop the IRS from taking your wages.

Tampa Real Estate Tax
Expert

Real estate and taxes are closely intertwined. Here are some key points to keep in mind:

​

  1. Property taxes: Property taxes are taxes levied on real estate by local governments. The amount of property tax you pay depends on the assessed value of your property and the tax rate set by your local government. Property taxes are used to fund local services such as schools, police, and fire departments.

  2. Income taxes: Real estate can generate income in the form of rental income or capital gains. If you own rental property, the income you receive is subject to income tax. If you sell a property for more than you paid for it, you will have to pay capital gains tax on the profit.

  3. Deductions: There are several tax deductions available to real estate owners. For example, you can deduct mortgage interest, property taxes, and certain expenses related to maintaining and repairing your property.

  4. Depreciation: Real estate is a depreciating asset, meaning that it loses value over time. You can claim depreciation as a tax deduction, which can help reduce your taxable income.

  5. 1031 exchanges: A 1031 exchange is a way to defer paying capital gains tax on the sale of a property. By reinvesting the proceeds from the sale into a new property, you can avoid paying capital gains tax on the sale.
