hen purchasing a new home or remodeling your current residence, the kitchen should be one of your most significant considerations. Other rooms can benefit from a coat of paint, new furniture, or updated window treatments. But the style, efficiency, and character of a kitchen makes it one of the most desirable spaces in a luxury home. The kitchen attracts all types of homebuyers from those who have mastered the home-cooked meal to those who employ a personal chef. Regardless of your talent or interest, an efficient and enjoyable kitchen will simplify your life and create a welcoming home. Kitchens are no longer a utilitarian space isolated from the rest of the home. Today, kitchens are designed for effective and efficient storage, cooking, food preparation, and entertaining. With popular open floor plans, the kitchen often flows into other rooms requiring consistent decor, but providing more space for guests. Include seating with a breakfast bar and stools, window seat, or bistro set. A center island is ideal for appetizers and drinks, and offers a welcomed centerpiece for mingling guests to gather around. Get any party started with a stocked wine refrigerator. And if you lack the space for a true wine cellar, install a custom built-in wine rack to house your collection with style. Take advantage of Hawaii’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle with an outdoor kitchen. A spacious lanai provides the perfect foundation. Ideal for those who love to entertain, an outdoor kitchen allows for more seating space and exposure to the exquisite elements. Include a grill, fire pit, wood-fired brick oven, sink, and storage for a truly luxury outdoor kitchen. It is important to consider the wear and tear of the elements so select outdoor materials when purchasing appliances and furniture. Sunbrella offers sophisticated and durable outdoor fabrics for upholstery, drapery, patio umbrellas, awnings, and more. If it is time to put your home on the market, remember that updated kitchens are an attractive selling point. Top-of-theline appliances, high-end finishes, and contemporary decor increase buyer interest. Ultimately, no matter which lavish aspects this room boasts, a luxury kitchen should be designed to make daily life effortless in the most stylish fashion.

Sweet and Tangy Summer Salad As the weather is warming up on the islands, simple, refreshing options seem to be a favorite dining choice. One of my favorite summer meals is a Sweet and Tangy Summer Salad. My recipe blends the subtle flavors of farm-fresh baby arugula, the creaminess of artisan crafted goat cheese, the sweet accent of Kula Country Farms strawberries, the spice of a crisp bell pepper and the pop of fresh liliko’i. All of which is topped with Kaua’i made papaya seed dressing and sugar cane dusted Hawaiian macadamia nuts. If you would like to create this salad on your own, here are a few items that can be found at your local farmers’ market or health food store. Aloha nui loa, Leah Lambros
Ingredients: • Fresh Baby Arugula • Liliko’i Pulp • Kula Strawberries • Red Bell Peppers • Kahala Fresh Chopped Cane Sugar Macadamia Nuts • Surfing Goat Dairy Chèvre Goat Cheese • Hawaiian Hula Papaya Seed Dressing

Taxpayers Beware: Zero Profit Doesn’t Mean Zero Capital Gains Taxes In this difficult market, many taxpayers are selling property in short sales or other transactions with no profit. Unfortunately, what many taxpayers do not understand is that property may be sold with no profit, but still be subject to significant taxable capital gain. How is this possible? It is possible simply because gain results not just from appreciation in value, but also results from depreciation deductions taken during ownership of the property, gain deferred from previous transactions, and from borrowing against appreciated equity in a declining market. These adverse tax consequences can be avoided by engaging in a Section 1031 tax deferred exchange.
How to Determine Gain
The formula to determine taxable gain is: Sales price less adjusted basis1 = taxable gain
Three Situations Resulting In No Profit, But Taxable Gain 1. Depreciation Recapture If a taxpayer takes depreciation deductions, those deductions reduce the taxpayer’s basis, thereby resulting in gain. Example: Taxpayer acquires investment property A for $200,000. Taxpayer’s basis is therefore $200,000. During taxpayer’s ownership, taxpayer takes $138,500 of depreciation deductions, thereby reducing taxpayer’s basis to $61,500. Taxpayer sells Property A for $180,000.00. Even though taxpayer sells the property for $20,000 less than what he originally purchased it for, he still has a taxable gain of $118,500 ($180,000-$61,500=$118,500) which will result in approximately $41,500 in federal and state taxes. This adverse tax result can be avoided by exchanging the property in a tax deferred exchange rather than selling the property. 2. Carryover Gain If a taxpayer sells property previously acquired in an exchange – at no profit or even at a loss – the taxpayer may still Continued on page 78

Example: Taxpayer originally acquired Property A for $20,000. Taxpayer disposed of Property A in a tax deferred exchange for $100,000 and acquired Property B for $150,000, thereby deferring taxes on $80,000 of gain. Taxpayer’s adjusted basis in Property B is $70,000 ($150,000 purchase price-$80,000 carryover gain=$70,000). Taxpayer now proposes to sell Property B for the same price as he purchased it for – i.e. $150,000. Although Taxpayer is not making a profit on this transaction, he will still have significant federal and state taxes of approximately $28,000 on his gain of $80,000. 3. Excess Borrowing If a taxpayer borrows against appreciated equity in their property, tax consequences can also result if the property thereafter declines in value and the taxpayer is forced to sell the property for little or no profit. Example: Taxpayer acquired property A for $1,000,000, paying $200,000 cash and borrowing $800,000. Taxpayer’s basis is $1,000,000. During Taxpayer’s ownership, the property appreciates in value to $1,400,000, enabling Taxpayer to refinance the existing loan of $800,000 with a new loan of $1,120,000. Taxpayer now sells, but since property values have declined, his selling price is $1,120,000. Although Taxpayer will receive no cash from the sale, he will still have taxable gain of $120,000 ($1,120,000-$1,000,000=$120,000), with combined federal and state taxes of $42,000. As illustrated by the foregoing examples, sales of property that yield little or no cash can still result in taxable gain. Before selling in a down market, taxpayers and their advisors should first determine the taxpayer’s basis in the property to be disposed of and thoroughly discuss upfront the potential tax consequences. Taxpayers can avoid any of the tax consequences noted in these examples by engaging in a IRC §1031 tax deferred exchange.
Taxpayers contemplating an exchange should always consult their tax or legal advisor.
