Does anyone know how to give 50,000.00 to a friend without them having to pay a gift tax??
Magnison Offer Upgrade User ID: 80105326 United States 07/30/2022 11:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	Does anyone know how to give 50,000.00 to a friend without them having to pay a gift tax?? Hi folks... I have a friend I want to help out. He only owes 50k on his house and its on an adjustable Line of Credit. My thoughts were to pay off that loan for him in exchange for a 50K lean against his property, which he would then make small payments to me at a very low interest rate. My intent is to give this free and clear in some way, but in a legal manner where he wouldn't have to pay a tax on the money. I'm wondering if I simply pay off the loan with the stipulation that I receive a payback when the house is sold in the future, if that would suffice in him 'trading' 50k in cash for me holding 50K against his property. If there are other ways to do this in a legally then please offer your comments. Thanks! BTW, I would call my CPA about it but he charges 250.00 an hour and I don't really want to go that route right now if I can find some info here or elsewhere.

There is no gift tax that a recipient pays. The giver has to fill out a form for any gift over $16,000 ($32,000 if your friend is married). The excess contribution is counted against your estate, after you die, if the estate is worth more than $12 million dollars.

My first thoughts were just loaning him the money, in a legal and binding way, for an extremely long time, at an extremely low rate, so in essence it would feel like it was basically given to him.

Quoting: Magnison Have him deed the property to you by way of a quit claim deed. You then payoff the mortgage. Draft a promissory note with your terms, and interest charge, and when he pays it off you deed the property back to him free and clear.

He takes the deed, pays the mortgage, then establishes a lease-purchase agreement for $50K. When paid his friend gets the deed back. His friend is motivated to pay off the note, and he is protected by holding the deed so if his friend defaults he gets the property. Any good real estate attorney can set it up legally.

Open a checking account with both your names on it. Let him draw from it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83937132 I have thought of that. Opening a checking account with a debit card and just giving him the debit card on that account to do with as he wishes. But at some point, if he were to pay off a LOC for his house, he might have to explain how he did that if there were an audit of some sort.
