📉 Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Resets: What You Need to Know 📈

Attention real estate investors! 🏡

As many of you know, the adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) you secured pre-Covid may soon be adjusting, and this could significantly impact your bottom line. Back in 2019, rates averaged around 3.5-4%, but current projections suggest rates could soar to 6.5-7% for many of you. This means properties that were once cash-flow positive might now be upside down with the higher rates.

If your current low-rate loan is maturing in the next 3 to 18 months, or if you anticipate a rate adjustment within the next 12-24 months, it might be time to consider a fixed-rate swap loan. This financial tool can help stabilize your payments and protect you from future rate hikes. Note that under Federal regulations, this option is only available to entities with a net worth over $1 million.

🚨 Breaking News in Tax Law! 🚨

This week, the US Supreme Court overturned the Chevron doctrine, which had allowed federal agencies like the IRS to create and implement rules with minimal oversight for nearly 40 years. Previously, courts deferred to the IRS's "reasonable" interpretations of tax laws.

Now, the judiciary will oversee the legality of tax laws and their implementation, limiting the IRS's autonomy. This means more scrutiny and potentially longer processes for new tax rules.

For those frustrated by the IRS's unchecked power, this is a welcome change. Existing IRS laws will stay the same for now but may face legal challenges.

Stay tuned for more updates!

🚨 Warning: Rising Threat of Impersonation Scams Targeting Older Adults 🚨

Scammers are increasingly targeting seniors by pretending to be government officials, aiming to steal sensitive personal information and money. These fraudsters often pose as representatives from agencies like the IRS, using fear and deceit to exploit their victims.

“Scammers often target seniors, attempting to steal personal information through phone calls, emails, or text messages by pretending to be from the IRS or other agencies or businesses,” said IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel. “Preventing these types of scams requires assistance from many different places. By partnering with other federal agencies and others in the tax community, we can reach more seniors and other taxpayers to help protect them against these terrible scams.”

Understanding the Threats:

Impersonation of Known Entities: Scammers often pose as representatives from the IRS, Social Security Administration, Medicare, and other familiar organizations.
Claims of Problems or Prizes: Scammers create urgent scenarios, such as outstanding debts or promises of significant prizes, to trick victims.
Pressure for Immediate Action: Fraudsters demand quick compliance, often threatening arrest or other severe consequences.
Specified Payment Methods: Scammers insist on unconventional payment methods, like cryptocurrency, wire transfers, or gift cards.
Precautions and Reporting:

If you receive an unexpected call from someone claiming to be from the IRS, hang up immediately.
Do not return calls using the number provided by the caller or shown on caller ID.
Verify IRS communications by contacting IRS customer service at 800-829-1040.
Report scams to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484 or online.
Key Points to Remember:

The IRS will usually contact you by mail first.
The IRS will never demand immediate payment through unconventional methods.
The IRS will never threaten to involve law enforcement to collect taxes.
Protect Yourself and Your Loved Ones:

Stay safe and help spread the word to protect our seniors from these malicious scams!

Missed the April deadline to file your 2023 federal income tax return? Don’t worry, the IRS has a number of options to help you get back on track! 📝💸

Here’s what you need to know:

Payment Programs: The IRS offers payment plans and special first-time penalty relief for those who qualify. Don’t let penalties and interest charges add up—pay what you can as soon as possible.

Penalty Details: Interest on unpaid taxes is currently 8%, compounded daily. The late-filing penalty is generally 5% per month, while the late-payment penalty is 0.5% per month. Both max out at 25%.

Electronic Payments: The quickest way to pay is via IRS Direct Pay on IRS.gov. Several other electronic options are also available to make paying easier.

Penalty Relief: If you receive a penalty notice, read it carefully and follow instructions for requesting relief. You may qualify for penalty abatement if you’ve filed and paid on time for the past three years.

Payment Plans: Can’t pay in full? The IRS offers short-term and long-term payment plans.

Short-term: Balance under $100,000, up to 180 days to pay.
Long-term: Balance under $50,000, monthly payments up to 72 months. Direct debit required for balances between $25,000-$50,000.
Automatic Extensions: Certain taxpayers, like those in disaster areas or serving in combat zones, automatically qualify for extra time to file and pay without penalties and interest.

Adjust Withholding: Use the Tax Withholding Estimator to ensure the right amount of tax is withheld from your paychecks, preventing surprises next tax season.

👉 For more details, visit IRS.gov and search for penalty relief, payment options, and tax withholding information. Let’s get those taxes squared away and avoid any more headaches!
