Taxation of Investment Income
Stacey provides an overview of different types of investment income. Interest Income: Taxed as ordinary income. Dividend Income: Can be qualified (taxed at capital gains rates) or ordinary (taxed at regular income tax rates). Short-term Capital Gains: Taxed at ordinary income rates. Long-term Capital Gains: Taxed between 0-20%, depending on income level and investment duration.Strategic Tax Planning
Stacey shares advice on timing stock sales to benefit from long-term capital gains rates, reducing overall tax obligations. She also touches on rental income, explaining that it is taxed as ordinary income but comes with the advantage of deductions for property expenses.Tax-Advantaged Accounts
IRAs and 401(k)s: These accounts offer pre-tax contributions, with taxes deferred until retirement distributions. Stacey warns of a 10% early withdrawal penalty and advises consulting a tax professional for effective tax planning.Wash Sale Rule
The wash sale rule disallows deductions for selling a security at a loss if the same security is purchased within 30 days before or after the sale. Understanding this rule will help you avoid unexpected tax liabilities.“When it comes to rental income more than likely it's going to be taxed at an ordinary income rate, which is whatever your normal tax rate is based on your entire income for the year." - Stacey Hoffler Smith.
