White House Prods Banks to Move on Lending

– The White House is fighting to make it easier for people with less-than-stellar credit to get home loans, a move insiders say will spur recovery. They’re joined by housing advocates who say the improving housing market hasn’t reached lower-income and young people. But the plan “would open the floodgates to highly excessive risk and would send us right back on the same path we were just trying to recover from,” says a former Fannie Mae boss. Home loans for people with credit scores in the 620 to 680 range were down 90% last year from 2007 levels, reports the Washington Post.

Spring Home Sales Slump

Nearly everyone in the real estate business predicted strident sales during the 2013 spring selling season thanks to the momentum of the housing recovery, rising prices and favorable interest rates, but sales have slipped since the colder months and the market seems to have stalled. Sales dropped 0.4% in February and analysts say it’s a combination of fewer homeowners putting their properties on the market combined with a dip in new-home construction. The result is a lack of options for willing buyers and some wonder whether the sales slowdown will dial down prices as well.

Steps to Appealing the IRS

If you are audited by the IRS, they will issue you an assessment of the revised taxes you owe which may include back taxes, interests and/or penalties from non-payment or late payment of past taxes.  If you disagree with the IRS’ tax bill adjustment you can appeal any proposed change to the IRS within thirty days of receiving the letter notifying you of the proposed changes and your right to appeal.  This is called a “30-day letter.”

The first thing you should do is to make an appointment to talk to the manager of your local IRS office.  If discussions with the manager can resolve the issue, there is no need to pursue the matter further and your case is deemed closed.

If this meeting fails to settle the issue, then the IRS manager will make out a report on your case and submit it to the district office.  The District Office will issue an official letter informing you of their findings after reviewing your case.  If you still disagree with the findings, you final recourse will be to appeal to the IRS Appeals Office.

So the next step would be to approach the local IRS Appeals Office.  If you are a partnership or S corporation, an exempt organization, or if you qualify for special appeal procedures such as requesting Appeals consideration of liens, levies, seizures, or installment agreements you should make you appeal in writing.  Make sure
