How much is estate tax in texas?

There are no property taxes in Texas currently. However, the estate tax is a federal tax, and as of 2010 it was up to the first $5 million being deductible.


Will you have to pay taxes on your inheritance of 900000 in Texas?

As far as Federal income taxes are concerned, inheritance is not taxed on your 1040 return. The Estate itself may be required to file an Estate Tax Return and possibly pay Estate Taxes depending on the total value of the estate in total and the line of inheritance. As far as State taxes in Texas, I am not familiar with that but I doubt very seriously if any income tax is due on a State basis either.

Do you have to pay inheritance tax on inheritance?

I think that depends on the tax laws, both federal and your state of residence. If I recall correctly, here in Texas for example, the determination of whether or not an inheritance tax payment is owed, "rides" on the federal criteria. If federal tax is not owed, then Texas does not require it. The last I recall, the determination of federal tax on inheritance was based on the value of the estate, and an estate valued at less than $1.5 million was exempted from payment of federal estate tax, and therefore, Texas estate tax. I also seem to recall, that the $1.5 mil federal exemption was only a "temporary" thing, and is subject to "sunset out" within a couple of years, unless reenacted. Prior to the $1.5 mill exemption, I think the amount was $600,000 per estate. I'm not sure about this, but I think that even though an estate is exempt from "estate taxes," the heirs will have to declare money received on their income tax return(s), and pay INCOME taxes, both federal and state, on that income. Also, the income from any real property, WHEN sold, will have to be declared, and taxes paid on that income.

Can a broker charge a broker fee for Admitted business in the State of Texas for professional liability insurance?

Yes, A brokerage fee is common practice for brokered business of all types. It's also common in all other financial fields including mortgage brokers, stock brokers, buisness brokers, loan brokers, real-estate brokers and brokers of all types. That's how brokers earn a living. they may also earn a negotiated commission on the final transaction. Generally brokerage fees are non-refundable. If the client/s back out of or fails to close on a transaction the broker has worked hard on and perhaps spent many hours negotiating, then the broker hasn't done all that work for nothing. If you feel your brokers fees are too high and you have developed a relationship with them, you can probably negotiate a lower fee with them, especially if you utilize their services frequently.
