aministrator of estate no financial records of deceased uncle. What do I do when I file taxes with the IRS?
Q. I was appointed administrator of my uncle's estate. I thought he had his financial records...Unfortunately, he died incompetent and no will (intestate)...There are no legal records. I live in KS...He lived in NY. He filed no taxes with the IRS, since 2003. My records began in 2007. What do I do if I do not have any financial records and there is a small estate connected to 2 mortgage notes?

A. It is hard to tell what may be due based on your narrative. He may owe income taxes and may not. As administrator you need to make sure everything is OK before you close the estate. I am an enrolled agent, a tax specialist licensed by the US Treasury Department to represent taxpayers (along with attorneys and CPAs) and specialize in clients who have substantial outstanding tax liabilities or long periods of failing to file returns--in other words, messes.

How long does it take to settle an estate?
Q. Does it take so long as a year to settle a family's estate? It's been a year and the executor of the estate has not sent the money to the rest of the family. Does it usually take this long? And does the executor of the estate have to tell everyone if they are taking their 20% for being the executor of the estate?

What happens to an estate that is not settled after five years time when the party dies without a will?
Q. The party has several businesses, however business partners are attempting to push the family members out. The estate is still not settled five years later. Is it not a Texas law that if the estate is not settled, it all goes back to the family?
Asked by curiousgeorge - Tue Jul 8 09:17:58 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. When a person dies without a will, the estate of the deceased will be distributed in accordance with Texas intestacy laws. It's not clear to me from your facts why the estate hasn't been distributed yet. The five year time span is absolutely irrelevant. If this is a real issue for you, you need to be discussing this with your attorney as opposed to relying on the advice of strangers here who do not have all of the facts of your case.

A. If you are talking about selling real estate as an agent, then You can take real estate classes in college or you can go to a real estate school (this is what most agents and brokers do) you will have to take a licensing test from the state. If you are talking about investing, then there are REITs you can invest in through a stock broker, If you are talking about investing by flipping (buying and fixing then selling) you will need to learn about costs of materials, value of real estate in your area, subcontracting for plumbing etc and have time for equity labor. below is link to kaplan schools, one of the better real estate schools

I have a IRS lien filed against my Real Estate. How long do I have before the property is placed for auction?
Q. A lien was recently [July, 2007] placed by the IRS against a piece of Real Estate in New York that is owned by an Estate that I am the Executor of. How long do I have from the time the lien was placed by the IRS to the time that the IRS forces the property for sale or auction? If the property is forced for sale or auction by the IRS is there some type of redemption period that I have? The Estate does not want me to sell the Real Estate. The estate will be able to pay the IRS what it owes within three months. Do I have that much time before the property is placed to auction or sale?
Asked by FineArt1983 - Tue Aug 28 21:25:23 2007 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The IRS will not always force a sale. but as executor of the estate, you are required to settle all debits before the probate court closes the estate; so unless you have cash to settle, you'll have more issues with the probate court for failure to fulfill your job as executor than the IRS. Sell If you contact the IRS and advise them you are closing out the estate and need 90 days to pay out the lien, they will gladly accept that.

How do I calculate estate & inheritance taxes for a life policy?
Q. I am putting a client in a $4Mil life insurance policy and its my first one. Do you know how I can calulate his estate and inheritance taxes? He owns about $1.5 Mill in real estate. Thank you.
Asked by dillan - Sat Feb 21 18:30:17 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It is my understanding that if the proceeds of a life insurance policy go directly to the beneficiary, then there is no Estate Tax since the proceeds are not part of the estate. There is also no Income Tax on the proceeds of an insurance policy. There would only be Estate Tax if the proceeds of the policy were paid directly into the estate thus becoming part of the estate's value. Only if the estate were valued at over $3.5 million in 2009 would there be an Estate Tax paid by the estate before the estate is disbursed. As to Inheritance Tax, each state is different and Inheritance Taxes are paid by the recipient of the Inheritance. Some states, like California, have no Inheritance Tax, while other states, like New Jersey do. However,… [cont.]

Does becoming a licensed real estate agent/broker before buying your home save you money?
Q. I am planning to buy a home around $700K in New York City. I'm wondering if I will save any money by becoming a licensed real estate agent/broker (I realize I have to take the test and pass) and then purchasing the home for myself. I would think that by doing this, I would save the broker commission that I would otherwise be paying another real estate agent/broker. Is this a valid assumption? Please provide any information about this. Thanks a lot.

A. The last person that answered and said it is not possible to collect a commission if you are the principle is incorrect. They may want to check their source. I am an active real estate agent. I have bought 2 homes that were my primary residence in the last 7 years. Each time I represented myself as the buyer's real estate agent. Each time I deducted my commission from the price of the home because that is how I wanted to get paid. But I had the option to get paid the normal 3% as the buyer's agent and have that money go through my broker and their commission split to be taken out. So in order to avoid all that, most brokers allow their agents to have at least 1 personal transaction in order to benefit from it. Maybe things are… [cont.]

Make sure you are studying business and esp commercial real estate during your spare time. If you are in AZ, I will hire you immediately.

A. What are you talking about? Each county assesses property taxes based on the value of the property, if that's what you mean by real estate taxes. What could you possibly be referring to when you say regular tax? Do a little research; if you are inheriting this house, there must be an executor of the estate who can explain it to you.
