Home Buying


If you don't find the answers you need ask a new question.

I’m over 59 1/2 and I want to pay cash for a 1st time primary home. Does that reduce the 20% tax for withdrawal of $80k from my 401k? Can I do a roll-over into different savings(IRA?) Am I limited on how much I can take out of my present fund? Right now, I have about 150k in the fund. I want to reduce debt to increase other retirement savings.

What are the tax implications for selling a house and how is it calculated? We are renting now and intend to buy a new house, but I am not sure if it will happen within this tax year. Thanks.

I have been researching expenses as a result of now owning a home, but I am unclear what might happen now from a tax perspective, how does a home typically impact someone’s tax return, both in terms of new deductions and/or costs?
