The Fiscal Cliff Deal and Its Effect on Real Estate: January 2013 Real Estate Radio Hour Legal Minute



As if my spending almost an hour last Sunday on the Red Hot Real Estate Show talking about the so-called “Fiscal Cliff Deal” – otherwise known as the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (even though it was passed on January 1, 2013) – I’m devoting my Legal Minute segments on the Real Estate Radio Hour this month to go a bit more in depth on the provisions of the Act that affect real estate.

Extension of the 2007 Mortgage Debt Forgiveness Relief Act (January 12, 2013)

Dealing With Increased Capital Gains Taxes on Real Estate Sales (January 19, 2013)

The Fiscal Cliff Deal and How it Affects Federal Estate, Gift and Generation-Skipping Transfer Taxes (January 26, 2013)

Special thanks to my Lommen Abdo colleague, Karen Schlotthauer, for allowing me to “borrow” from her recent article regarding the Act’s estate planning implications for the January 26 segment.

As always, archived segments are available by visiting the Real Estate Radio Hour page of my website, and be sure to tune in to the show live every Saturday from 10 AM – 11 AM, Central Time, on WCCO Radio 830 AM.
