Selling a single family house immaculate in gated community?

My husband and I just put our house on the market. We live in a beautiful gated comm. Our house is only 9 years old and has new kithen and floors. There are 3 other homes in our community for sale priced 20 to 30 thousand dollars above our price. We live in south florida. Our realtor seems to think the market should pick up in the summer. Does anyone have any insight?

Thanks

For Florida residents: What are some good growth management solutions for your community?

More road building was proposed in the Tampa Bay area. To take some pressure off of our super clogged roads. A major highway project that would connect Tampa to the rest of Hillsborough and Pinellas county. In other words, connecting the city to the suburbs. It has been criticized because many folks want a true mass transit system here instead of cars. Also, the ones on the county commissioner’s board are major landowners and would benefit greatly from the sale of land in this project. And I mean millions. In other words, old fashioned Florida corruptness. Another growth management technique is impact fees that go to benefit the schools in Pinellas county. New residents move in and must pay a lump sum of a few thousand dollars to offset the damage that growth does. What are some techniques in your community? This place is growing FAST!

(Hey Smilin1) Can I purchase a home? see details.?

I am 21 years old. I have excellent but limited credit. My assets include a car that is worth about six thousand dollars, an IRA worth about 8K and about 2K of liquid cash. I make around 38K annually. Around here (being the capital region of New York State), the sort of home I am interested in purchasing is between 75K and 140K. I have the means and a solid plan for paying my mortgage. I am just conceared that I will be unable to get a mortgage. And if I am able to do so, my lease is up at the end of March. Does this leave me enough time? This is (obviously) my first experience in this field and I would really appreciate some guidance. Feel free to email me at L1VExFAST@yahoo.com or contact me on AIM at L1VExFAST for more information or with advice. Thanks a million.

Any and all help will be appreciated. The profit on each homes is approximately 40-50 thousand dollars. I’m looking for 200 to 350 thousand to get 2 builds started. Thanks.

How much income tax would you have to pay on a sale of land for $90,000?

The land is owned by a family of 3 in the state of Nebraska. They are splitting the land 3 ways. If each of them got $90,000 how much would each of them have to pay for income tax on that 90 thousand dollar land sale? A fairly general number would be ok…I’m just trying to figure out if it would be more like 2 or 3 thousand dollars…or if it would be more like 10 or 15 thousand dollars. Thanks in advance.
ok so im adding a couple more details to help out…The land was aquired about 7 or 8 years ago by means of inheritance. The land was appraised at 160,000 dollars in 2001, and now appraised around 300,000 this year.
