I'm thinking of buying a 2-unit building, using one unit as my primary residence. My question has a few parts.

1) I'm planning on moving out of my townhouse and renting it out full-time. I can easily get $1500/month for that. How will that income be taxed? And how will that affect my taxes at the end of the year? Will I still get the tax break for the mortgage interest that the renter pays?

2) I'll be moving into the 2-unit building, using one of the units as my primary residence. I can get $1500/month for the other unit. How will that income be taxed? And will I still get the tax break for the mortgage interest that the renter and I pay towards this second mortgage?

I'm still maxing out my 401k each year, to take advantage of that tax break and help plan for my future. So that'll help out each year.

Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated.



Thanks!

My sister and I want to open a bussiness for teenagers. We want it to be a safe drug and alcohol free place for teens to hang out. The only problem is that we need some kind of grants to help us start up the bussiness. Neither one of us has much money but we care alot about what happens to these kids. Any ideas. Please only serious replies. We really want to do this. Thanks alot.

I responded to an ad on tv where they would "send you payment by return mail" for sending in pieces of scrap gold that you may have around the house. They sent me the pre-paid envelope and I sent them a few pieces of broken jewelry and have not heard from them since. Have any of you had similar experiences? I guess I will have to chalk it up to "live and learn."

I know the majority of the items are organic, which makes it more expensive than conventionally grown products, but a loaf of bread at Whole Foods is more expensive than the exact same brand and type at a different grocery store. Why is that?

I have retired from my former job and now I don't know what to do with myself. Because of a little, so-called "alcohol problem", I've lost my ability to make personal appearances at the larger comic conventions (one tiny little episode of public indecency - people can be so judgemental!).

What's a washed up former super-hero to do?

Ok my partner and his dad owned a house together and his dad sadly passed away 6 months ago. His life insurance is paying off the old mortgage. Well me and my partner went to the bank the other day to get a loan to pay for the heating. The bank refused and said it is because our account is in the hands of the debt collection agency. We have not been paying the mortgage as we didnt know we had to, we were under the impression that the mortgage was frozen until the life insurance paid it off. We have had no letters at all from the bank saying they want payment and no letters even stating that we were now responsible. How can we now be in arrears! If you dont pay your phone bill u get reminders etc, is it any different with a mortgage? What can we do to get out of this mess. We are currently looking to remortgage and now with this black spot on our record i doubt we shall be able to. Our bank is Lloyds TSB. Any advice is appreciated.

Developer is looking for investors to buy lots of land. Developer is wanting to start an IPO and get $$$ to launch it. Investors buy lots and "cash out" $20 K -- then lease the lot back to the developer and in a year's time -- the developer buys back the lot. Can you do this? Or is it a Ponzi Scheme?

She has some assets, but not enough to continue paying for the nursing home on her own. What do we do with her assets, so she will qualify for Medicaid when the two years that are paid by long term insurance are up? She has a house and some money in the bank, but it costs $160 a day in the nursing home. We don't understand how Medicaid works and if they take all her assets which she worked hard for and would like to leave to her children. Any help would be appreciated, especially from personal experience. We are planning to see an attorney who specializes in elder issues.
