Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin announced on Tuesday that the federal government will allow taxpayers to defer income tax payments for up to 90 days in order to help mitigate the economic chaos caused by the coronavirus fallout.

Taxpayers filing for the 2019 tax season can also defer those filings for the same three-month time period. The ordinary deadline has been pushed from April 15 to July 15.

Corporations will also be granted a three-month reprieve. No taxpayer or corporate entity will suffer penalties or interest rates during that time, Mnuchin said.

The deferment does not apply to state taxes, only federal.

Everyone has Credit Karma, it seems. The app offers you a way to get credit scores and reports from two of the three major credit reporting companies, TransUnion and Equifax.

The biggest plus for Credit Karma is the app is FREE! It’s hard to beat that. These free reports come in handy to spot inaccuracies to correct and improve your credit. You even get a credit score. Great, right?

While Credit Karma will give you A SCORE, they do not provide you with THE SCORE. Credit Karma will not give you the FICO Score. That is the score lenders will look at when they process your mortgage application.

Therefore, many times the score from Credit Karma will differ greatly from the scores the lenders use.

If you’re purchasing a home, then you’re going to need a down payment.

Many home buyers are not aware that they are able to withdraw from their 401(k) to use for the down payment.

How much can you borrow?

• $50,000, or
• 50% of your 401(k) account balance

Millions of households that hustled to get their tax returns to the IRS early could be waiting until March for their refunds.

If you’re claiming the additional Child Tax Credit (CTC) or the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), the IRS cannot issue your refund before mid-February. An anti-fraud law requires the agency to use that additional time to review those returns to prevent refunds from being issued to scammers.

That means these families could be waiting until the first week of March before their refunds hits their bank accounts.

Where’s My Refund? Most refunds are issued with in 21 days.

Trouble In Paradise

Vehicle break-ins in New Orleans have surged about 160% since 2015, according to city statistics. City leaders are under even more pressure after more than 6,000 car burglaries were reported in 2019, a roughly 57% increase from 2018.

Lakeview has not been exempt from these statistics. But, how has this effected the Lakeview housing market?

Here are the numbers. In the month of January 2018 the average sold price in Lakeview was $437,500. That is a drop from January 2017 where the average sold price was $567,500.

Another telltale sign is the fact that out of the 73 active homes for sale in Lakeview, 26 homes (appx 35%) hit the market just in the last 30 days with the average list price being $564,500. Is the proverbial sky falling in Lakeview?

Either way, these facts only lead to more questions. Where do all these current Lakeview residents plan to relocate? And, what is the demographic of the potential buyers of these Lakeview homes?

Time will tell.

Wait…There’s MORE…

New Orleans recently updated its laws around short-term rentals and you’ll need to take action by December 1 to keep hosting your space. You can complete the entire process online in just a few minutes.

After December 1, certain types of listings (including all dedicated or secondary home rentals in residential districts and rentals in the Garden District) will no longer be eligible to register, so it’s important to get started now if you’d like to keep hosting.

BUT… If you don’t want to deal with all the hassle, new fees and taxes that may be incurred, we can SELL your property.
