Construction is under way on a new commercial and retail center to service residents who live near Nacimiento Lake and Lake San Antonio, with construction now complete on sub-anchor, Oak Hill Market, which is slated to open as early as late next May.

“We’re going to offer everything that you can find in a traditional Vons or Albertsons and then some,” says store owner Chris Martin. “We’re doing catering in our deli for the wineries or anyone who does special events. It’s basically your full-service grocery store in a unique market area, if you will.”

The $100 million allocated for California’s first-time homebuyer tax credits may be depleted in about 10 to 20 days or sooner, according to C.A.R.’s Economics team. California’s Franchise Tax Board (FTB) plans to begin accepting applications on May 1, 2010 for tax credits up to $10,000 for first-time homebuyers and for homes that have never been previously occupied. However, the total tax credit allocation for all taxpayers is $100 million for first-time homebuyers and $100 million for new homes, both on a first-come, first-served basis.

C.A.R.’s forecast of 10 to 20 days to deplete the $100 million allocation for first-time home buyers is based on estimated May sales figures and other parameters. It does not take into account the possibility that buyers scheduled to close escrow in April may delay closing until May to take advantage of the tax credit. If a shift in closings from April to May occurs, the first-time homebuyer tax credits may be depleted even more quickly than indicated above.

Applications for the California tax credit must be faxed to the FTB after escrow closes. The FTB will update its website when the 2010 application form and other information become available.

The newest issue of the exclusive ForeclosureRadar.com report is now available and it has some interesting trends to share about the current state of foreclosures in California. The question is – are foreclosures declining? The start of the foreclosure process is known as a notice of default. After four months of decline, there was a sudden 19.7% jump in February of these notices of default filings.

However, there is a lot more to the foreclosure process than just the initial filing. If we look at the Foreclosure sales, meaning a fully executed foreclosure, we see that they have declined 11.9% in February. Overall, it’s difficult to say whether the efforts that the Administration is making to slow down foreclosures are fixing the problem at hand – excessive household mortgage debt.

A couple other interesting finds were:

- Foreclosure inventory of properties scheduled for sale increased a whopping 126% from the prior year.

- Third Party Investors foreclosure purchases increased 23.2% – the biggest increase since September 2006.

ForeclosureRadar.com is the only website that reveals everything you need to know about the activity and trends in the California foreclosure market and provides daily auction updates. Foreclosure Filings, Foreclosure Outcomes, Foreclosure Inventories, Foreclosure Discounting, Foreclosure Timeframes, even Foreclosure Activity organized by County – everything you need to know is in one place.

Distressed homeowners no longer have to pay California state income tax on debt forgiven in a short sale, foreclosure, or loan modification.  Enacted into law April 12th, Senate Bill 401 generally aligns California’s tax treatment of mortgage debt relief income with federal law.  For debt forgiven on a loan secured by a “qualified principal residence,” borrowers will now be exempt from both federal and state income tax consequences.  The existing federal exemption is for indebtedness up to $2 million, whereas the new California exemption is for indebtedness up to $800,000 and forgiven debt up to $500,000.

“Qualified principal residence” indebtedness is defined as debt incurred in acquiring, constructing, or substantially improving a principal residence.  It includes both first and second trust deeds.  It also includes a refinance loan to the extent the funds were used to payoff a previous loan that would have qualified.

The tax breaks apply to debts discharged from 2009 through 2012.  Californians who have already filed their 2009 tax returns may claim the exemption by filing a Form 540X amendment.

Taxpayers who do not qualify for the above exemptions (e.g., second home or rental property) may nevertheless be exempt under other provisions.  Most notably, taxpayers who are bankrupt are exempt from debt relief income tax.  Also, taxpayers who are insolvent are exempt from debt relief income tax to the extent their current liabilities exceed current assets.

For more information about mortgage forgiveness tax consequences, go to California Franchise Tax Board’s Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Extended webpage and the Internal Revenue Service’s Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act and Debt Cancellation webpage.  The full text of Senate Bill 401 is available at www.leginfo.ca.gov.
