Proverbial Falling off Fiscal Cliff 2013
Tax Exclusion on Short Sales, extended to end of 2013.
My original post on this matter is here: Income Taxes & Foreclosures/Shortsales 12.21.2007.
As you know the tax code had an “Exclusion from gross income of discharge of qualified principal residence indebtedness (Sec. 108)”
…in other words many home owners were not taxed for 1099C income received as a result of foreclosure/short sale. This exclusion expired 12.31.2102, it been reinstated and extended to 12.31.2013. Good news for the short sale market.

Just in case anyone needs to fill out a form 1099C, I found a blank form here http://goo.gl/7BNdnh. This site PDFfiller also has some tutorials on how to fill it out and a few related tax forms that you might find useful.
