slash ramsay jaguar, charles ramsey personality is Michael ocean. Today, welcome back to the ramsey, show I'm your tuesday ramsay today's they come from Michael in nebraska, You have to turn on your mind her. Will you As this does it ever make sense to pull from retirement to pay. The house off. Curious if it would be acceptable to take out fifty thousand dollars out of our roth ts, p impair for mortgage, my wife, debt free, accept our mortgage? We have five hundred thirty four In dollars and our ts, p, of which a hundred fifty thousand, is my rough ts, be I'm sixty one and work. My wife is fifty five and doesn't work outside the home with my military retirement, vs disability in federal salary we bring make around a hundred forty k gross a year. We plan working another three years or so, or mortgage balances about a hundred thousand. If we stay the course,
we will pay off in five years if we take the money out of our csp we could pay off in two years. I wouldn't do it. I don't. I don't understand why they wouldn't just stay the course. I don't want your in retirement. If your nest egg is big enough, that you can make it with out what I do understand on this. Is why we're taking out? Why not just painted off? Would you well? Maybe the tax implications nor motor causes all roth, so wroth and so may go in one thousand hundred a thousand rod and if in the of one does not a mortgage. Why are we just cutting it? I have only one fifty thousand on at the moment. either I mean either. Do it or don't paint or get off the latter? Ok, if he pay it off, you ve got four hundred and fifty thousand and During the five years you would have paid it off. You can build up some more retirement. In a roth
and building that's true and you got for fifty thousand laughed and you ve got the disability federal showery milton beta had already in military retirement. So what I take hundred thousand out of five thousand and our father and thirty four thousand and pay it off at sixty one years old right on the bubble and here's right on the bubble. Ok if it was two hundred thousand, and you only had one hundred thousand left on site. Definitely now, okay, definitely if it was a million and you had none are definitely yes, you can show see how I'm right on the bubble. I'm like you know, leaves a good chunk, but it's not like so a few did this and I probably would probably by the whole thing off. I would not pay off fifty thousand in there just take the little hundred thousand approaches, but only what you do. That you pinkish worse, but shake you and your wife look at each other and go we ain't doing nothing? but a hundred thousand back,
but why wouldn't they? Okay, I'm playing devil's advocate, that's good! Why wouldn't they? Because I'm looking at at at the opposite, where I'm like you're making one hundred and forty k year? Why can't you live on? If you really care like that? Why can't you live on nothing and get this thing paid off into year in two years? I'm with you so that that was My three! If you do that, you can put it back into your stuff. That's true! So there's there's gonna rhode, island. I hear the bottom line is both of those answers involved. he's not putting on here. Yet that's right and both of them involve intensity at way. Duck from we're? All Michael is right now because he's trying to trying to play with the fifty thousand out of a hundred while you dont fifty just neon ganging you're, just gonna, come on come on whatever it is, you don't do go online and pay the whole thing, often embossed it and put it back or just didn't pay it off now, sixty one in Boston, it wouldn't miss, require at sixty one another question: does he needs
busted at all, or can he just go we're just going to pay off our home? Keep going keep trucking along, keep investing or fifteen present key like? Can he you then I could do that. Does he could be entails, advised my weight but point is either the thing we're both feeling in those that were not that it took a second to get to the services he it's all. lukewarm, yeah, ok, get get here. You can rarely hot are really really cold here and get it we whatever it is you're gonna do, and so, if I woke up in here, which one what I'd she really. I'm probably gonna, pay it off, and I'm gonna put turn on the heat, yeah put a hundred thousand back in the bank into your eye but you're gonna pay it off into I'm gonna pay off use and bosnian country than one of these answers or in the dome column, that's right. If it has the, that intensity that we are talking about now only pulls out a hundred thousand and he's just you know Meandering, along that, it's not ok, yeah, that's not saint Louis hi. How are you
I am well thank you got. I am a new listener. I found you until Deanna have really been enjoying your shirt. Monsieur you. Yes, so I've been rent he out my mother com, then she and to have an early twenty twenty and the rent is gonna, be moving out the spring. I'm trying I did if I want to move in or if I want to sell the home. I haven't all that if I even I decided I want to sell it that I should probably move in. Two years and because of that, to recapture that appreciation, It's been claimed on my tax returns for the last three years though, I wonder no one. Is that correct your shoe as it is a good idea that would be correct. because what will happen is if you sell your personal residence, you can make a gain of up to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars as a single person.
Personal residents means you have lived there for two years ago, that gain would include the recaptured depreciation because converting it from a rental property to a saint to a personal residence after it has not been a rental property for very long enough. It had been a little property for five years. You wouldn't this option so you're going to do this. You ve got to do it now. Ok, ok, mathematically that is going to work and it's not a bad idea at all. If you, if want to do that and here's the thing. what's the house worth I think the zillow has that it's something like it's a wide range, but I think they put it at three fifteen. What do you think it's worse? I think They went more than that. How do I get more hobbling? Ok, here's! What was your group requesting? What's depreciation? Did you taken that one year. Oh gosh, I dont now might my attacks repair knows all that. I am one more awareness that one schedule young one that much. Ok,
so the taxes on this. If you shower today or not going be much cause, here's what happens basis in inherited property that the tax is calculated on is what it was worth at the time she passed me, finish whatever depreciation you have taken. that's all you're, going high taxes on is anything over the that figure, and it's not gonna be substantial. So if you hate hates nothin, but I really don't want live there, but I'm holding my nose just caused by tax thing sounds right: don't do it I have still done, but if it's like might be kind of a coup adventure and I'd, probably save ten grand or somethin, then that's ok, but it's not. one hundred thousand dollar swing in this discussion. It's a fight ten thousand dollars wing in this discussion. Ok well served If I don't live there and just sell it after it's been a rental it am. I am. I am exposed to capital gains,
Yes, the an angel recalculate. This way, the vow you at the time of your mother's death, herbaceous. That's us: if you paid that number four it ok I know any depreciation you take and so let's sites, Four hundred thousand value at the time she passed, then you take Thirty thousand dollars worth of depreciation now your basis, your adjusted basis is three and seventy. You follow me you later? for five. Seventy many years from now. Ok, That's a two hundred thousand dollar gain over that three. Seventy. you! She added that, but not gain is not the whole five hundred seventy. When you shall it it's over. Whatever you're a regional value was minus. Whatever depreciation you take, an account each time. Your basis is low word each year by appreciation you take on your taxes. That's called your adjust.
Dead basis cause your adjusting the cost downward the amount, your writing off. The logical and sounded pretty stupid of me. When I shouted no now, and I think it makes sense if the question of captain and tat is it more than ten turpin all donors? Why drifting percent fifteen percent you're in your personal scrambled, probably more than that. And that is less what I'm sayin. Even if you shoulda today. What
well gyration you've done with this depreciation in the recapture and all that over what it was worth when she passed it's not going to be much money, five, ten thousand bucks max and so you're gonna have time to mess it up too much in terms of the calculation for taxes. Very interesting call. Thank you, janice, thanks for being a new viewer on tb. In, for those of you, don't know it's one of the places you cannot watch the show every afternoon.
