There is a lot that makes me upset about taxes!The fact that my taxes go to pay wages of some slacker government employee upsets me. I don't want to pay them to take more rights away from me they have done that enough, thank you.My parents now pay more in taxes per acre, than my grandfather payed per acre to buy the farm. Not fare? nothing is anymore.we are worse off in this county than we have ever been.the poor get poorer, the rich get richer.

Here are some resources for starting a business in North Carolina http://www.nccommerce.com/servicenter/blio/startup/\n\nInformation on filing limited partnerships, LLPs, LLCs, and corporations is available by telephone, letter, over the counter, or over the Internet from:\n\nDepartment of the Secretary of State\nCorporations Division\nPO Box 29622\nRaleigh, NC 27626-0622\n919 807-2225\nToll-free: 1 888 246-7636 (leave message)\nhttp://www.sosnc.com \n\nThis is the page that has all the information on incorporation in NC including searching for corporation name, fee schedules and forms.\nhttp://www.secretary.state.nc.us/Corporations/ThePage.aspx

Cost of Living Index (U.S. average = 100)    91.85\n3-Bedroom House Price (U.S. $) $156,400\n2-Bedroom Apartment Rent (U.S. $) $745\nProperty Tax Rate 1.32%\nSales Tax (state and local) 7.0%\nCrime Index is 177 \n\n\nThe Historic "West End" and "Ardmore" areas are nice places to live. I think you would fit in, but I also think Greensboro, NC (less than 30 min. away) might be a good (if not better) fit for you.  It is a family type place to live.  Winston Salem also has a lot of churches and a Moravian background, but I don't think you'd have a problem living in Winston even if you are not religious.

There is no state income nor any state sales tax in Alaska (some localities have a sales tax though).  We put a royality on pumped oil instead.  Some of that money goes into a "Permenant Fund" and dividends ("PFD"s) go out to state residents.  \n\nYou have to have been here for the previous calendar year (or been born in the last calender year) to receive it in October.  This year it was $1106.96 to every man, woman and child.  Just for taking up space.  Not surprisingly, when getting paid to just take up space, that is what some people do.\n\nI'd rather it was used for education and infrastructure, but free money is such a popular concept, it is political sacred and will never go away.\n\nThere was homesteading in Alaska decades ago and it really took off after WWII.  Guys who found it too crowded in North Dakota passed through during the war and wanted to come back.  No longer the case, for many years.  But it lives on in the popular imagination and in various internet /marketting scams.\n\nI do know people who bought 5 forested acres far back on a dirt road for $3,000 or so.  So I suppose there is some truth in the combined concept: Take the free money and use it buy cheap land.  And, if you don't mind a snowy 500-foot dirt-road driveway, shitting in an outhouse at -30F, and heating with wood you cut and split all by yourself, you can live on that land pretty cheapily.  I know people who do that to, but they usually stop when they 1) grow up around age 35 or 2) get/want a girlfriend.  But some keep at it.\n\nHope that helps.

This is a tricky one.\n\nYou would pay capital gains taxes on the difference between the sale price and the basis.  The basis would include the original cost plus any improvements.  The property taxes were probably deducted each year so you can not add those to the basis.  You may get a "stepped-up" basis for half of the land based on the fair market value of land on the date of his death.\n\nIt is time to see a professional.  I would not attempt this on your own.

The cheapest land would be vacant land or foreclosed land - check with realtors in the area you'd like. The government auctions off this type of land.  \nHere's an online auction place:http://www.land-upforauction.com/

In the 1580s, the British established two colonies in North Carolina, both of which failed.\n\nThe first permanent English settlers in North Carolina were immigrants from the tidewater area of southeastern Virginia. The first of these "overflow" settlers moved into the Albemarle area of northeast North Carolina around 1650

You will have to call your county regarding rules and regulations governing home based catering. I suggest  you call the NC Business ServiCenter  http://www.nccommerce.com/servicenter/blio/startup/ tel. no. 919 715-2864 or Toll-free ( in NC ) at 1 800-228-8443 and ask for the phone number of your county. You need to talk to the Food Services group. \n\nIn the Nags Head area for example, catering businesses are subject to prepared food and beverage tax that the business operator pays to the county on a monthly basis, and this tax is 1% of total gross of each month. Different counties may have different rules. You also need to get a state ID from the Department of Revenue, which is the ID you will put in those monthly food and beverage report that you will submit to the county. \n\nThere's a lot of things to do, so better call your own county to get first hand information.\n\nGood luck\nIsabel Isidro\nFor information on starting a home business, visit http://www.powerhomebiz.com

Washington D.C lots of opportunity probably not much cheaper cost of living tho.  Its hard to find that combination that your looking for.  Hey! I just remembered The Golden triangle in North Carolina is great.  That's Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill Where Duke University and University of North Carolina are located.   Beautiful  weather to.  A bit hot in summer but not so cold in the winter.

typically the property tax is based upon your assessed values of your land and anything permanently attached to that land and the zoning of that land.\n\nnow for easy English -  \n\n if you have a lot in town that is zoned residential and it is 75x100 that lot has an assessed value by the county it is in.\n\n if you have a house on that lot it has an assessed value placed on it by county assessor also.  it is based upon size, location in that town, what materials were used to build it and finish it with. \n\nif you have a detached building that is permanently placed on that lot such as a detached work shop or garage then that also has an assessed value by the county placed upon it.\n\nYour property tax is then sum of all of these items \n\nthis is the simple version as with every government entity they will find other things to tax you for or you also pay for blanket assessment for say repaving of your road that will be based upon your assessment of road frontage your lot has. \n\nso hope this helps to confuse you in the ways of our government

Depends on the amount financed and your area of North Carolina.  You can check out Bankrate.com at\n\nhttp://www.bankrate.com/brm/rate/mtg_home.asp\n\nDon't be pulled in by the lowest rate.  IMHO, my advice would be to use a local lender not some out of state outfit.
