Question

Help answer this question below.

I sold a rental property this year. Can I defer the taxes on the capital gains or pay them over several years rather than paying all on this year's return?

    nope..Unlce Sam wants his money NOW...if you wanted to defer the gains, you should have done a 1031 exchange while the $$ was still in escrow...too late now...you can pay over several years and incur the penalties and interest because the money is due 4/15/09! And you might still have penalties because you may have been required to make an estimated payment!

    You have to pay them for the year that you received the money - unless you are granted an extension by the IRS

    Yeah, you gotta amorgatize the 5010b's into a non-reviewable equity arm in a 80/20 account or otherwise set up a power of attorney loan on a revolving federal capital building. If you liquidate the taxable annuities for co-signing variable interest hikes, you'll be in the pink before you can say chicken is legal tender. It's a bull market, baby.
