As long as you keep the original house as your primary residence and remain in it "for the greater number of nights in a year" you will not have to repay.

Caution: If your new purchase is in a different local and a W2 shows your employment being in that new local, odds are you will have to repay so don't try to hold onto the original house and just tell uncle sam it's your main residence.

Does one have a year to sell an inherited house with trust before you have to pay capital gains?

If the house went through the estate then the basis was bumped up to the basis used for the estate (the estimated value at either the date of death or 6 months later that was used for the estate tax return). In the current real estate market with the current tiny capital gains tax its hard to imagine a gain on a sale generating much of a tax bill. If the house is in the trusts name, the trust pays the tax, if in your name you pay the tax. However, if you sell a house that wasn't your primary residence the capital gains tax is taxed in the year of the sale. I suspect you've got this mixed up with having a year to roll over the capital gain on the sale of a primary residence into the purchase of a new primary residence. If the trust is just an estate management vehicle that liquidates when the estate tax is settled, which is common in Virginia because it lets the executor duck most of the accounting rules and all the interim reports, and if the house has been your primary residence because for example you're the spouse of the decedent, and if through the trust you're the sole beneficial owner of the house then its possible you can roll any gain on its sale over into another house. If you have this kind of well planned estate, I'm not sure why you're asking you're question here though... You might also have this confused with a rule that sets a short time limit for liquidating an inherited IRA that has a trust as its benificiary as opposed to the more normal rules that apply when the original IRA was promptly separated into individual inherited IRAs for the trust's benificiaries. If you've got multiple houses now, you should check with whoever does your taxes to find out the tax implications of your plans. My guess is declaring this inherited house to be your primary residence to roll over what's probably a tiny a gain over its basis from the estate would trigger an immediate tax bill for any gains rolled over into the house you lived in before you inherited this house. If gains rolled into that house have been offset by the declining real estate market you would probably have to sell that house to only pay tax on the net gain as opposed the gain that was rolled into it. This doesn't seem like a great advantage, but it all depends on your situation.

Can you do a quit claim when you have a mortgage?

Generally, you are not free to transfer your property if it is subject to a mortgage.Most mortgage documents have a 'due on transfer' clause that the mortgagor agreed to at the time of the signing of the mortgage. The bank must be notified of any transfer in interest or the mortgagor will be in breach of the agreement and the bank will demand payment in full. A quitclaim deed will trigger the due on transfer clause.If the property is transferred, the mortgagor is still responsible for paying the mortgage and the property is subject to the mortgage. If the mortgage isn't paid the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure and the foreclosure will be reported on the mortgagor's credit record.If a new owner has agreed to take possession of the real estate subject to the mortgage the seller must notify the bank of the transfer of interest. The bank may require that the mortgage be paid in full and refinanced by the new owner. On the other hand the bank may agree to allow the new owner to assume the mortgage. In that case, the original mortgagor will be free of the mortgage obligation and no longer responsible for repayment.

What was roy rogers horse?

A Palamino This is a color breed. According to Bill Witney, Trigger's sire was a registered Palomino; his dam was 1/2 cold blood and 1/2 Throughbred. Her sire had raced. Trigger inherited the best of both parents. There were also other Triggers, Little Trigger and of course Trigger Jr. Trigger was a stallion but not related to Trigger, Jr. Trigger Jr. was a Tennessee Walker. Little Trigger did most of the traveling to rodeos and such. Trigger was a stallion but was only used once for breeding. I asked Roy once about Trigger being used for breeding. He told me he was not happy about the breeding and didn't want to say much about it except it didn't turn out well. To learn the whole Trigger story read Trigger Remembered by William Witney


Can a blued trigger be original on a 1956 or 57 sweet sixteen?

I have seen a '57 model with a gold trigger, and the finish was wearing thru and it had a somewhat darkish, maybe blued look to it. So there is a possibility that the trigger's finish has worn off, and another possibility that the person went and either got the trigger blued, or they used a cold-blue substance on it to give it a finish to keep it from rusting/deteriorating.
