The Landmines of Wealth Protection
"FLPS" - OVERRATED, IRS HATED!

The Landmines of Wealth Protection -"FLPS" - OVERRATED, IRS HATED!
By Albert Aiello, CPA, MST, Investor

Family limited partnerships (FLP's) have become all of the rage with the overstressed premise that they shield your family wealth with iron-clad impenetrable protection. So the primary reason for using FLP's is for asset protection? Right? Wrong! Promoters who sell expensive FLP kits would like you to believe this. FLP's do provide asset protection in the same way as limited liability companies (LLC's) and corporations do. They give you limited liability protecting you personally. However, the main reason to use FLP's is estate tax reduction, not asset protection. Unless your estate is substantially over the federal estate exemption amounts, you will generally not need an FLP.

Moreover, FLP's have recently become subjected to frontal attacks by the IRS with heavy litigation (and in fact a battleground) in numerous tax court cases over the validity of the FLP entity with a business purpose and valuation discounts on gifts of FLP units to younger family members in order to reduce estate taxes. As part of this frontal attack was the issuance of summonses to a law firm for all of their FLP marketing materials including the names and addresses of all their clients to whom any of these programs were sold to. This was by court order which was agreed to by the United States Court of Appeals. The law firm partners have been ordered to appear before the IRS to divulge their records, including the names of their clients. (Call that great protection and privacy?)

This is not meant to discredit FLP's or to sell you fear. Legally, they have their place. But you have to understand that FLP's are complex legal and tax entities that require the extremely careful draftsmanship by qualified, reputable professionals of pertinent documents and implementation of the proper procedures to ensure that the FLP is a valid entity with a business purpose, and for the devaluated gifting of limited partnership units to younger family members (not to be done by do-it-yourself kits). Moreover, besides FLP's, there are lesser audit-prone (perhaps superior) alternatives to reducing estate taxes, along with asset protection, such as Private Annuity Trusts.

Outside of estate tax reduction, LLC-partnerships, with a very low audit profile, can protect you just as well, yet without the complexity and higher cost of an FLP.

Another drawback of FLP's is Passive Loss Limitations under Internal Revenue Code 469(c).
Many of my students, using my Goldmine componentizing depreciation system, show large "paper" losses on their properties. They love to deduct such losses against their other ordinary income, such as W-2 income, business income, gains, pension income, IRA distributions, etc. They save thousands every year doing this. (Thousands they can reinvest for more income and more wealth). However, an FLP is a limited partnership and a limited partnership is subject to passive loss limitations. This means that such losses would not be currently deductible against your other income as per the above. (You therefore would lose the investment use of the tax savings and the related potential income; not a way to get wealthy.) On the other hand, an LLC-is not subject to such passive loss limits. Therefore using an LLC (along with a certain degree of management) will not interfere with your ability to offset loss deductions against your other income; plus LLC-partnerships are much less audit prone than FLP's.

Another drawback of FLP's (as well as other entities such as LLC's and corporations) is that while they protect you personally, they do not protect the net value of the assets within the entity, such as real estate. Many investors are misled to believe that if they put assets in an entity (such as an FLP), they are totally protected in an ironclad manner. The Titanic was ironclad too, but sunk; and so could an FLP! In future articles I will discuss a very effective way to protect ALL of your assets inside and outside of the entity.

The above discussion demonstrates that when you evaluate an asset protection vehicle, you must evaluate all sides - Legal; tax; estate; IRS; inside; outside; etc. and BEWARE of the misinformation of asset protection promoters on the circuit!

Albert Aiello (CPA, MST, Investor) is a widely acclaimed informative and entertaining national speaker on dynamic strategies covering Tax Reduction, IRS Audit Proofing, Entity Structuring, Asset Protection and other proven ways to protect your family wealth. Since the mid 1980's Al started to teach asset protection at advanced university graduate programs. Attendees included top-notch CPA's, tax attorneys and higher level IRS agents.

HOME MORTGAGE DEBT RELIEF

On Thursday, December 20, 2007, President Bush signed a tax bill to provide relief for homeowners facing foreclosure. Under the new provision, homeowners can exclude income created as a result of the bank’s forgiveness of debt. The purpose of this article is to describe the previous law, the new provisions, and its impact on both homeowners and investors.

This provision impacts those borrowers who have sold their houses via short sale or lost their houses in foreclosure and are facing deficiency judgments. Simply put, a short sale is where the lender agrees to take less than the amount of its debt to satisfy the mortgage, and a deficiency judgment occurs when the house sells at foreclosure sale for less than the amount owed on the judgment. In both cases, the lender has the option of suing the borrower (or having the borrower sign an unsecured promissory note) to recover the balance, or the lender can write off the balance and issue the borrower a 1099-C classifying the forgiven debt as income. Under the law as it existed prior to December 20, 2007, borrowers could exclude that “forgiveness of debt income” if it was discharged in bankruptcy, if the borrower was “insolvent” (as that phrase is defined by the Tax Code), and various other types of exceptions that do not apply for purposes of this article.

Under the new provisions signed by President Bush, borrowers can exclude up to $2 million of mortgage debt forgiveness on their principal residences if the debt is forgiven between January 1, 2007 and January 1, 2010. Mortgage debt is defined as debt incurred to buy the house, to fund construction of the house, to make improvements to the house, or to refinance the original mortgage debt on the house. In addition, the exclusion only applies to debt against the borrower’s principal residence. Investment property is not covered under this new provision.

How does this apply to investors? Although there appears at first to be no tangible benefit to investors, a clear understanding of the various foreclosure and tax laws will separate investors from their competitors. If the borrowers are adverse to considering selling their houses via short sale, then knowledge of this new law will help calm the borrowers and educate them about the benefits of the law as it applies to the short sale.

For information on the mechanics of how this exclusion applies, please contact your CPA or Tax Advisor. This firm recommends Charles D. Shapero, CPA, of Harper Van Scoik & Company, LLP, at (727) 446-0504.

Meeting With a Seller by Jason R. Hanson

Preparation is one of the major keys to success.  If you are prepared when you meet with a seller, then you will be more confident and more likely to close the deal.

Your preparation in meeting with a seller begins with filling out the seller information sheet.  Is the sheet completely filled out? Do you know what is motivating the sellers to sell quickly? Have you identified if this is a subject-to, lease option, or short sale deal?

Once you have determined that you have a deal, you need to secure an appointment immediately.  Try to make the appointment as soon as possible, so the seller doesn’t have time to talk to the competition.

The night before your meeting with the seller, you need to prepare an “information” folder.  The first item that this folder will contain is a Special Report about how the property will be purchased (subject-to, cash, etc).  This Special Report should be very detailed and answer all objections the seller may have.  The next item in the folder should be several testimonials from previous satisfied clients.   Testimonials are very powerful and have helped me secure several deals.  Make sure that you always ask each seller or tenant that you assist to write a testimonial letter for you. Next, you will want to include every form pertaining to the type of deal you are trying to put together.  You want to give the seller copies of blank forms so they can review everything they are going to sign.  Every time you visit a seller, your folder should contain at a minimum:

  1. Special Report
  2. Testimonials
  3. All contracts and forms

You will also want your own folder when going to meet with a seller.  This folder will contain all of the forms and contracts needed to close the deal.  It will also include a checklist of all the forms needed and other information you must remember.  This can include remembering to put a lock box on the front door, checking the mortgage statements, or putting a bandit sign in the front yard. After your folder is finished, you are almost there.  On the day you meet with the seller, dress appropriately.  Arrive at least 10 minutes early to the meeting.  If you ever think you are going to be late, always call the seller ahead of time.  Greet the seller with a firm handshake and a big smile.  Thank them for allowing you to visit with them today.  Then ask them if it is alright if you take a tour of the house.  While you are doing this, make small talk with the seller to build rapport.  After you have inspected the house, sit down at the kitchen table and ask the seller if they have any questions before you begin to go over the paperwork.  Once all questions and objections are handled, then review the paperwork.  After the paperwork is reviewed, address any additional questions and then sign everything. 
Clearly, you can see that if you are not prepared with your paperwork, not dressed properly, and don’t know how to handle objections, then the seller may not work with you.  Prepare ahead of time to ensure you are coming home with a signed contract.

Using Direct- mail and List’s to
drive traffic to your Web sites

Using Direct- mail and List’s to drive traffic to your Web sites
By Dan Stojadinovic (Prospectizer.com)

The usage of Direct- mail is overlooked by many Website owners. Only a few realize that a direct mailing campaign is highly effective and affordable to drive traffic to their web sites. You can purchase any number of List’s like Absentee-Owners, Pre-Foreclosures, Bankruptcies, Probates, Judgments, Evictions, Code violations etc… it’s a time efficient & an easy way to set up an automated system to send out sequential and personalized mailings to contact the prospect. When using mail- merge, you can include the owners name and the address of the property in the mailing. This increases the response rate. Setting up sequential mailings, for example once a month for 6 months (absentee owners or FSBO’s) your conversion rate goes through the roof. You can easily count on better than a 2% response rate by using this system. ANYONE can get started at an affordable price. Direct-mailing has an advantage over Pay per Click internet campaigns because YOU CAN TARGET THE RIGHT (specific) DEMOGRAPHIC! It’s still fairly difficult to target the desired demographic on the internet by just using keywords. List your web site on the mailing, try to have a short and easy to spell web site name. Keep in mind, the seller will have to type the URL (your website address) from the postcard into the browser’s address bar. Most of the conversion (even after the prospect visit the web site) will come to you over the phone, therefore; use an extension number to track the calls. I would recommend that you put your TOLL FREE NUMBER WITH an EXTENSION across the header (in plain sight) of your web site, so at any time the seller can just pick up the phone and call. If you have a job, locate an inexpensive Answering Service to collect the leads (the best Service will not only email or fax you the leads, but input them into your database and send you a copy).

The form on your web site will ask “Where did you hear about us” so you can confirm that the mailing is working. And the Google Analytics tracking system will show the lead as a direct arrival (verses a referral).

Some of my real estate investor clients, setting up a designated web site that is ONLY USED to measure the DIRECT MAIL MARKETING CAMPAIGN effectiveness. This way, the investor/ business entrepreneur knows exactly; after pulling the analytics report, that all the generated leads coming to 100% form that campaign. In the past this was cost prohibitive to do, but now with an $0 setup cost and only $5 per month for an additional site, investors starting to set up multiple web sites just to track a single marketing campaign and experimenting & testing the effectiveness of their marketing copy (text). All that’s left to do is to combine your phone and web reports and then you know what your response rate is for that specific direct marketing campaign. And of course, Contact your Leads, Make OFFERS !, and Follow-up !! Doing that, you will succeed!

One of the most amazing things to us about this whole process is how we have been able to take our money that was just being wasted away or sitting in an account that made no interest and use it in an organized way and see how much difference it made in our progress towards paying off our mortgage. We’re not losing anything in the process... we seem to buy the same things that we always have but the money is just more efficiently used. I think that if we can do it, anyone could and it’s just an incredibly positive feeling. Some things seem like they’re too good to be true, but this one is the real deal.

Partnerships for Real Estate Investing

Partnerships for Real Estate Investing
by Wendy Patton

Partnerships? Who me? Yes, you. They can be very profitable!

Partnerships can be a very lucrative decision for real estate investors. A partnership’s definition is “a legal relation existing between two or more persons contractually associated as joint principals in a business ” – in real estate, partnerships can be used for many applications. If you have time, knowledge or money, then you are a perfect candidate to partner with someone with different qualifications. Say you have money, but don’t have the time or knowledge – there are many investors who have time and knowledge, but don’t have or they are out of MONEY! If you have them all, money, time and knowledge, then you don’t need to partner, but most of us don’t have them all, or don’t have them all, all of the time, and therefore, other solutions can give us more flexibility for buying properties. Partnerships are one solution to this situation. Let’s talk about how a partnership can work in lease options. Say I find a good home that would sell for a good profit on an option, but the seller can’t sell to me on an option. They must have their cash out of the home, therefore, you have to pay cash or get a mortgage to make it work for the seller. If you don’t have cash and can’t get it, why not partner with someone who has the cash? Isn’t half of a good profit better than zero? And on the other hand, that someone with money, may not have the time to find or manage a property, but they would like to get in on real estate investing. In this case the person with the money would be responsible for paying cash for the home (with a reasonable interest rate on that money) or acquiring a mortgage for the home. The partnership pays the mortgage payments with the rent received from the home. When the tenant/buyer exercises their option – all profits are split or rolled back into the company for the next property. Partnerships are flexible and can be worked any way both partners agree upon.

Picking a partner is important. Many good friendships end over business, so be careful who you partner with. A good friend is not worth losing over any amount of money. If you are the money person, you want to pick someone that is aggressive, detailed on record keeping, honest, fair, trustworthy and experienced. If you are the manager of the property you want a partner who has money to work with, is honest, fair, easy-going and most of all – hands off. They must trust you to do your part of the partnership.

Create a legal partnership agreement. All details of how the partnership will work, should be worked out, documented and signed prior to any business transactions being started. Go through your plans together. What do you want the partnership to do? What happens when things don’t go well? Go through worse case scenarios and make sure that all of your solutions are worked out before they happen. What happens if the well goes out and it will cost $3500 to fix it? What happens when the tenant doesn’t pay the rent and knows the system and gets the judge to extend their time before eviction – and then damages the home severely? What happens when you have to go to court? Who will represent you? Etc. I use LLCs- Limited Liability Company’s for my partnerships. Having an attorney draft the operating agreement is a very good idea. Both my partner and I review them. When we get all of the changes or corrections made. We both sign 2 copies. One copy goes to me and one to my partner. Talk to an attorney before you start a partnership. Poor communication and lack of documented procedures is the number one reason why partnerships have misunderstandings. Misunderstandings cause hurt, fear, and disappointments, all of which bring partnerships to ruin. I currently have many partners that either do the money end of the partnership or they ‘bird-dog’ for me. Bird Dog partners are ones that find the properties and many times manage them also. Many successful investors have partnerships with multiple people. Partnerships create synergy. With Synergy you can do more than you could by yourself. Here’s an example: by myself I might only be able to purchase 4 homes this year. With a partner, I might be able to purchase 10 homes – more than double what I can do myself – therefore, synergy – doing more than twice as much together as you could do alone. So, why not partner?
