If you have a second home or rental property you’re ready to sell, listen to this first. Too often, people head into a sale focused on the payoff – only to get blindsided by the fine print later on. Financial planner Heather Vavra joins host Michael Liersch to unpack the “hidden gotchas” in this situation, including a tricky surcharge called the Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount that could impact your future Social Security benefits. Because while you might be ready to say goodbye to that family cabin (and all the maintenance), the financial ripple effect of selling can hit when you least expect it. Heather and Michael cover how to account for the taxes involved – and how to ask for help, even if it feels too late.
