If i refinance and take money out is that capital gain?

I need to understand the question before I can give you an
intelligent answer. I am assuming you now own a piece of
property? And you intend to refinance it? And if you get
the $$$ you need, lets say $100,000. Would that money be
considered a capital gain.?
Answer: No It does not fit the definition of a capital gain. Why:?
Lets say you bought a house at $85.000. and prices skyrocketed. You sold this house at $250,000. Then the
amount of increase, or $60,000 would be considered capital
gain. Most states do require a tax on the gain, BUT there
is a liberal leeway before being taxable. Here in Cal.
I believe its all profits over $150,000. Please some Acct
out there, tell me if these figures are wrong.


EmmaHersh
No. Capital gains are only taken from the PROFIT when you sell your house but as long as you have lived in it for 2 years you are exempt from $250,000 of profit. $500,000 for a married couple.

no

No, since you now owe the money on a loan, it is interest free. If you are going to refi, you should try to apply with eloan, they will do the best job with it. They have a promotion now, If you use this link http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-2177451-10427742 they will waive the lender fees.


crazy b
no its considered borrowed money, because your loan will be higher than your balance owed on previous mortgage,you can roll over fees into mortgage if your income allows it.


John's Secret Identity™
No, that's taking a loan.


ShaneMortgage
It isn't capital gain until you sell the property.

nope, not for long anyway

most people don't count it that way, including accountants and the IRS


Clinton S
To answer your question, No that is not capital gain. If you currently own a home with a 1st mortgage and your property value has appreciated and you now wish to take a 2nd loan that is considered a Home Equity Loan. Usually most lenders will not let the 1st and 2nd mortgage exceed 100% of the appraised value. Hope this helps.
