There's a lot to digest in the fine print.Many Americans will not be able to file until after Feb 15 because the forms to itemize will not be available until then.Many more tax preparers will be required to e-file returns.

This is a follow up to my last post regarding development financing.We need to get 3 tracts totaling about 63 acres off of one bank and to another.

It was the old farmhouse on a tract that had been subdivided and developed.

An entrepreneur from California who was under indictment by the Feds for fraudulent real estate schemes purchased a very large tract of land in Charlotte and began building townhouses.

Second, there's the option, which I'd just explain as a post-dated sales contract, with the only difference being that you're not obligated to close on it.If part of your lease goes toward the sales price, that should be easy enough to explain, too.Perhaps you should consider writing up a one- or two-page document that simply discusses this transaction so that the person can digest it at their own pace.Do you feel that you're losing deals because people just can't get comfortable with the transaction?

Many of the residential tract homeowners have leases in place with energy providers.

So, the Reader's Digest version here, at least from my point of view, is that assumption of a loan -- especially in an institution that has a credit policy manual as big as an Oxford Dictionary -- is unlikely at best.Please let us know if you discover otherwise.

Wow sorry I couldn't digest - too much info.

I expect this will bring on another round of questions, I'm still finding this difficult to digest after the 2nd reading :-0

We had a situation like this in our family, where they legal ownership of several tracts of land were inconsistent with what everyone know were our ancestors intentions.
