2nd Mortgage With Poor Credit

August 8, 2006

It is amazing to me how professionals who are sharply focused on their careers and work incredibly hard to succeed make a poor impression when it comes to their resumes. I’ve seen everything from typographical and grammatical errors and terrible formatting to an overall poor structure, resulting in a document that is difficult if not impossible to understand. When a hiring manager or I see a resume with these flaws (and we do so with shocking regularity), it immediately raises a question about the quality of the candidate; obviously this person is careless, and that’s a bad sign. It is never too soon to have your resume updated and ready to present. Regardless of how happy you are in your job, the call for a new opportunity can come at any time, and it is critical that your resume be up-to-date and professional in every respect, or it may end up in the reject pile.

Mortgage and Real Estate Tax Deduction Study Measures Benefits

Back in November we reported that The President's Advisory Panel on Federal Tax Reform had submitted recommendations to then Treasury Secretary John Snow. Principal among the panel's suggestions were the elimination of federal income tax deductions for state and local taxes which would include the current deduction for local property taxes and the replacement of the current deduction for interest payments on home mortgages of up to $1,000,000 with a tax credit of 15 percent of the mortgage interest paid. The Panel maintained that this change would actually be advantageous to low and middle income homeowners although comments received on this website from those who made the computations based on their own circumstances did not concur, at all! The recommendations would pretty much do away with any deduction for a second owner occupied vacation home which, with some restrictions, is allowed under the current tax code.
