Get answers to legal questions about real estate ...

Email your questions to reweekly@rewnc.com and we’ll get a real real estate attorney to answer them. Seriously.

the question:

I am 66 years old and inherited a piece of land from my deceased parents 5 years ago. I am about to sell it for a figure which is lower than the tax assessed value from the court house. Do I have to pay any Federal or state tax on the sale of this inherited land?

the answer:

This is a great question that Real Estate Attorneys get all the time. The answer however is not gratifying at all, because it is you need to another professional. This is a tax question and although the attorney may know the answer or have a general idea they will not normally be able to answer (unless they are a tax attorney or CPA). You should talk to a CPA and they can either help lessen the tax impact or at least tell you what it will be under current guide lines.

The pros and cons of home ownership (StatePoint) Better employment prospects, rising home values and historically low mortgage rates are driving improvements in housing markets across the country. If these facts are tempting you to take the plunge, you’re not alone.

Keep in mind, buying a home is a major commitment and shouldn’t be undertaken without careful consideration, say experts.

“While homeownership is often referred to as the ‘American Dream’ for good reason, it isn’t necessarily everyone’s right move,” says Freddie Mac Senior Vice President and Head of Single-Family Sales and Relationship Management, Christina Boyle.

Understanding the pros and cons of homeownership can help you make a wise decision. For potential home buyers, Boyle offers the following insights: Ownership Pros From paint colors to major remodeling projects, one of the best parts of ownership is having a place that is uniquely yours to customize.

Consider the financial benefits, as well. At tax

time, you may be able to deduct the interest on your mortgage and property taxes, offsetting a portion of the cost of ownership.

Stability is another major draw. With fixedrate mortgages, your monthly principal and interest payments will stay the same for the entire period of the loan. This will make it easier to plan and budget over time, as opposed to renting, where rates are largely beyond your control. Furthermore, creating equity for the future will help provide stability and security for your family.

Ownership Cons Being your own landlord makes you responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of your property. Budget for maintenance costs -from little fixes to such major, costly issues as roof replacement and water pipe repair.

Other home-related costs to keep in mind include utilities, homeowner association dues, homeowner insurance premiums and property taxes. Just like with your rent, your mortgage and utilities should be paid on time. This will help you maintain good credit and is essential if you want to borrow again in the future for home renovations, new cars

or student loans.

Self-Assessment An honest self-assessment can help you determine if buying a home is right for you.

Do you have a reliable income, good credit and documentation to verify your savings?

Do you have the money required for home maintenance and a cash reserve that can withstand a loss of job, illness or other financial setback?

Freddie Mac recommends that potential buyers be able to afford at least three-percent of the down payment and related closing costs.

Also, evaluate your life plans. Are you planning on staying in your home for at least five years?

Parents play big role with teen drivers (StatePoint) For teens, getting behind a wheel can seem like an exciting taste of freedom. But too much leeway too soon can have dangerous results. Car crashes are the number one killer of teens, and half of all teens will be involved in a car crash before graduating high school, reports the National Safety Council (NSC).

Luckily, states with a Teen Safe Driving Coalition are helping change the game. The Coalitions -- comprised of state and local government, law enforcement, public health agencies, traffic safety and injury prevention organizations, academia, businesses, teens, parents and crash survivors -- were established

by NSC and The Allstate Foundation. They have worked at the grassroots level for the last four years to educate parents and teens about the risks of teen driving. Coalitions exist in California, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Texas to offer solutions for parents to help teens be safer.

The results have been effective. Crashes involving 15- to 17- year-old drivers in Coalition states have dropped nearly 34 percent since the Coalitions were established four years ago, whereas non-coalition states have experienced just a 19.5 percent drop, according to NSC analysis of federal fatality data.

The Coalitions’ success is in part because they promote a program that indisputably saves lives. Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL), a proven method of reducing teen drivers’ crash risk by 20 to 40 percent, works by maximizing experience while minimizing common driving risks teens face, such as nighttime driving and carrying teen passengers. This allows new drivers to gain experience with less exposure to high-risk scenarios. All 50 states and D.C. have implemented some form of GDL. “Beyond legislation, parents have a role to play as well,” says Kathy Bernstein, senior manager of teen driving initiatives, NSC. “As the number one resource when it comes to teaching teens to drive, parents should stay involved well after teens get their licenses.”

With that in mind, Bernstein is offering some life-saving tips to families with new drivers: • Parents should drive with teens regularly even after they receive their license. A minimum of 30 minutes weekly can help ensure that safe driving skills are being employed.

• Talk with teens about managing distractions, such as phones -- both handheld and handsfree -- the radio, other young passengers, and even beautiful roadside scenery. When teens are driving, they must stay focused on the task at hand.

• Mile for mile, 16 and 17 year-old drivers are about three times as likely​to be involved in a fatal car crash at night than during the day, according to “Injury Prevention,” a peer review journal. Parents should give teens opportunities to learn nighttime driving skills with an adult supervisor in the car.

• One of the best ways for teens to learn to drive is by example. So practice safe habits always.
