Have questions about selling your Atlanta home? Here are quick answers to the most common topics — from capital gains to commission structure.
When you sell a property for profit, the IRS treats it as a capital asset. Your home or investment property falls into this category. You’ll pay tax on the difference between the purchase price and the sale price. The federal rate for capital gains is usually around 15%, and some states add their own tax as well.
Fortunately, there are smart ways to reduce or even avoid those taxes. The most common method is to live in the home as your primary residence for at least two of the last five years. If you qualify, you can exclude up to $250,000 of profit for single filers or $500,000 if married.
You can also reduce taxable gains by deducting the cost of major improvements such as renovations, system upgrades, or new amenities like a pool. Always keep receipts for documentation. The commission you pay to a real estate agent is also deductible.
If you plan to buy another property, you may be able to roll over your profits into that purchase to defer taxes. Because tax laws change, it’s wise to consult a CPA or real estate attorney for personalized guidance.
A 1031 exchange lets you sell one investment property and buy another “like-kind” property while deferring capital gains taxes. This program, created by the IRS, helps investors move equity from one property to another without taking an immediate tax hit.
To qualify, you must identify the new property within 45 days of the sale and complete the purchase within 180 days. Following these time frames and rules is critical to maintain your tax-deferred status.
A 1031 exchange can be a smart way to build wealth, upgrade properties, or diversify your portfolio while keeping your money working for you. Always consult a qualified tax advisor or attorney before starting an exchange to make sure you meet all IRS requirements.
An assumable mortgage allows a buyer to take over your existing home loan, provided the lender gives approval. This means the buyer “assumes” your mortgage terms and continues making payments under the same interest rate and repayment schedule.
If current interest rates are higher than your original loan, this can be a major advantage for the buyer — they get a lower rate without applying for a new mortgage. However, the buyer must still finance any remaining amount not covered by the assumed loan. For example, if your home sells for $1,550,000 and the mortgage balance is $750,000, the buyer will need to secure financing for the remaining $800,000.
Before completing the transfer, make sure to release your liability in writing. Otherwise, you could remain legally responsible if the new owner defaults on payments. Always consult your lender or attorney to ensure all terms and approvals are handled correctly.
A lease-purchase agreement is similar to buying a home “on time.” It’s a written contract where the buyer agrees to pay rent plus a monthly fee over a set period. That fee is applied toward the eventual purchase price of the home. During the term, the buyer usually lives in the property while completing the purchase process.
A lease-option agreement works a bit differently. It allows someone to rent your home with the option to buy at a future date. If the tenant decides to purchase, part of the rent already paid is credited toward the home’s final price.
Both options can attract qualified buyers who may need time to secure financing. However, these contracts must be carefully structured to protect both parties. Always work with an experienced real estate attorney to draft the agreement and ensure all terms are legally sound.
As a professional Realtor®, my time and expertise hold significant value. The clients I work with recognize the high level of service and dedication I bring to every transaction. Reducing my commission may seem appealing at first, but it can also signal a willingness to compromise on value.
If an agent quickly lowers their own commission, how strong will they be when negotiating the best possible price for your home? I believe in demonstrating commitment and confidence from the very beginning. That means I stand firm on my structure because it reflects the effort, experience, and results I deliver.
