Guessing you did not understand the capital gains laws before selling?

I'm selling because I'm tired of renting to meth heads who don't pay their rent, and I'm ready to just bank the minimal profit and say frick it

Does the $38k account for depreciation recapture?

Did you consider a 1031 exchange into a better property?

Nevermind, you think Biden and Pelosi are responsible for the capital gains tax. No way you'd be knowledgeable on enough to consider 1031.

No, thank you, there is four years of depreciation

I have plenty of time to pour it into another property

of course. Two lefty demand-side politicians who've been in congress since the civil war have nothing to do with ridiculous capital gains taxes

If they’re cooking the stuff in your house.. better than decent chance they blow themselves up. Insurance proceeds would be tax free, IIRC.

If you sell capital assets at a profit, you pay capital gains.

Yes. Unless you have capital losses to offset.

Is that $38k before or after you recapture the four years of depreciation?

That 15% may be 20% plus your medicare tax if your income is high enough.

Biden didn’t do this but had Trump lost the House for the republicans too the dems would have changed the rate to be the same as the normal income rate.

They have actually gone down significantly since both took office. Capital gains were 35% when Biden took office. They were 28% when Pelosi took office.

Nobody on here is championing Biden or Pelosi. They are just pointing out how your ranting is misguided. Capital gains taxes are pretty well recognized, i.e., not really worth starting a thread to complain about, and one of the lowest tax rates anyone currently pays in our entire tax system.

You brought politics into this in an uninformed way that reflects poorly on yourself and conservatives. I'm just tired of both sides blindly blaming the other for everything. You came to the money board and showed both your financial and political ignorance and got called out. And by the way, you've got my political leanings all wrong.

1. I’m very confused on what your motive for starting this thread was which is why you’re not going to get good responses.

2. You seem to want to talk politics not money

3. How you twist this to anybody but you picking a fight, I don’t know...

Harry, I’m in the same boat as you. I have a CPA and still have to pay 19K to Fed and $4400 to state. Tired of renting it and not getting paid.
