Show Notes In this episode of Be a Smarter Homeowner, host Beth Dodson sits down with Craig Sheets, founder of Crestville Accounting, to unpack one of the most misunderstood parts of homeownership: taxes. Craig brings nearly 25 years of senior-level accounting experience and helps individuals and business owners not only stay compliant, but also make smarter financial decisions throughout the year. Together, Beth and Craig discuss how homeowners can better understand deductions, tax planning, rental property rules, renovation records, mortgage interest, inherited homes, and the importance of working with a knowledgeable CPA. This conversation covers practical tax considerations for both primary residences and rental properties, including the difference between repairs and capital improvements, how renovations can affect your cost basis, what rental property owners should know about depreciation, and why keeping detailed records can make a major difference when it is time to file taxes or sell a home. Topics covered include: Homeowner tax myths, Schedule A deductions, sales tax deductions, mortgage interest, real estate taxes, rental property deductions, cost segregation, depreciation, repairs versus renovations, capital improvements, tax basis, inherited homes, revocable and irrevocable trusts, energy-efficiency tax credits, and why planning with your CPA matters. Important note: This episode is for educational purposes only. Tax laws and individual situations vary, so homeowners should consult their own CPA, accountant, or financial advisor before making tax decisions.   Episode Summary Your home is often your largest financial asset, but many homeowners do not fully understand how it connects to their tax strategy. In this episode, Beth Dodson talks with CPA Craig Sheets about the deductions, credits, planning opportunities, and recordkeeping habits homeowners should know. Craig explains why tax planning should happen year-round, not just during filing season. He discusses how homeowners may be able to deduct certain taxes, mortgage interest, sales tax on qualifying renovations, and energy-efficient upgrades. He also breaks down the difference between a repair and a renovation, explaining why that distinction matters for tax purposes. For rental property owners, Craig goes deeper into depreciation, cost segregation, active versus passive management, possible travel and business-related deductions, and the importance of understanding how a property is owned. Beth and Craig also explore how renovations can affect a home's tax basis and why detailed project records can help homeowners reduce potential capital gains later. The episode closes with practical advice: keep receipts, track home improvements, document energy-efficient upgrades, communicate with your CPA before major projects, and treat your home like the financial asset it is.   Key Takeaways Homeowners may miss deductions simply because they do not know what to track. Repairs and renovations are treated differently for tax purposes. Rental property ownership comes with additional rules, deductions, and planning opportunities. Cost segregation may help rental property owners accelerate depreciation. Home improvements can increase your tax basis, which may matter when you sell. Mortgage interest can be part of an itemized deduction strategy. Energy-efficient upgrades may qualify for tax credits, which can be more powerful than deductions. Inherited homes and trusts can create tax consequences that should be planned carefully. Good recordkeeping can save homeowners money. The best tax strategy usually begins before the project, purchase, sale, or filing deadline.

In this episode, HVAC veteran Adam Mufich of National Comfort Institute (NCI) pulls back the curtain on one of the industry's most overlooked problems: the majority of residential HVAC systems in the United States are not delivering the correct amount of airflow. Drawing on decades of hands-on experience, Adam opens up about his own journey from confident installer to humbled diagnostician, sharing the moment he started measuring his systems and realized how much he had been getting wrong. His candor and expertise make this a must-listen for any HVAC professional serious about doing better work. Adam walks listeners through a sobering picture painted by a Department of Energy study covering 44 research projects across the country. The data reveals that between 50 and 93 percent of systems tested moved less than the minimum 350 CFM per ton of capacity, and between 67 and 100 percent of systems leaked more than 100 CFM to the outside. Equipment oversizing is rampant, with some studies showing that up to 93 percent of systems exceed what Manual J calculations would call for. The ripple effects are enormous: compressor failures, blown blower motors, cracked heat exchangers, wasted energy, and homeowners who are simply not comfortable in their own homes. Adam argues that the single most powerful fix is also the most underused one — properly sizing the equipment in the first place. The bulk of the episode dives into two distinct approaches NCI teaches for addressing these problems. The first is the Air Upgrade, a targeted set of repairs focused near the equipment to reduce static pressure and increase fan airflow. This includes reworking the filter system (a commonly undersized 16x25x1 filter can triple the allowed pressure budget on its own), improving duct fittings with lower equivalent lengths, cleaning evaporator coils and blower wheels, adjusting fan speed, and sealing duct joints. The second approach is full Duct Optimization, a more comprehensive renovation that addresses the entire duct system, incorporates Manual D calculations, installs balancing dampers, improves insulation, and uses tools like flow hoods and MeasureQuick to verify that every room in the house is receiving the correct airflow and BTUs. Adam also spends time on the practical and human side of this work — how to talk to homeowners, how to prioritize what matters to them, and how to overcome the very real obstacles that keep technicians from doing thorough airflow work. He addresses everything from fear of opening walls (his solution: build relationships with drywall contractors and offer turnkey repairs) to the simple but powerful mindset shift of treating airflow as something to be measured, not felt with your hand. His closing message is clear: the tools and methods exist, the training is available, and virtually every house in the country has a problem worth solving. The only thing standing in the way is the willingness to do it right. Topics Covered The current state of the HVAC industry based on a DOE meta-analysis of 44 studies Why equipment oversizing is the number one contributor to airflow problems and how to address it How a 50 percent oversized AC system can increase energy consumption by up to 91 percent (per the ASME Journal of Sustainable Buildings) Tools for proper load calculations, including Ample Energy and Conduit apps Why most systems are not moving enough airflow and what the consequences are (heat exchanger failures, compressor failures, comfort complaints) Duct leakage to the outside and its effects on comfort, indoor air quality, and building pressurization The four pillars of NCI's approach: safe, healthy, comfortable, and efficient systems The Air Upgrade approach: targeted repairs near the equipment to reduce static pressure and increase fan airflow The Duct Optimization approach: full duct system renovation with balanced airflow to every room Static pressure profiling: taking four measurements (before/after filter and before/after coil) to pinpoint restrictions Static pressure budgets and how to use them to identify which part of a system is the biggest problem Fan Law 2 as a planning tool to predict system performance before making changes The TrueFlow Grid and its forecasting feature for planning equipment changes Filter sizing and its massive impact on total external static pressure Duct fitting equivalent lengths and how to reduce resistance near the equipment Sealing duct joints and why it adds static pressure that must be planned for The importance of rechecking and adjusting refrigerant charge after any airflow improvement Air balancing with a flow hood to verify delivered CFM at every register Measuring delivered BTUs using tools like MeasureQuick, JobLink, and NCI's ComfortMax workflow Overcoming obstacles: technician buy-in, access to ducts in walls, attic space limitations, and homeowner hesitation Building relationships with drywall contractors to offer turnkey duct repair solutions Why airflow is invisible and why measuring it is non-negotiable   To learn more about NCI and its training offerings, visit https://www.nationalcomfortinstitute.com/.

RIck Stroud and Steve Versnick on the Rays 3rd straight loss as the defense commits 3 more errors and the bats are silent again. The Rays did add 9-time All-Star Craig Kimbrel who pitched a solid inning on Tuesday. Plus the Bucs OTAs are underway as Emeka Egbuka makes a spectacular one-handed catch but Bucky Irving won't participate in any OTAs or minicamp next month but should be ready for Training Camp. Also the Bucs are preparing to ask for nearly $1 billion dollars for stadium renovations as the Rays are still working their deal with Hillsborough County and the City of Tampa. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ryan and Dana discuss projected renovations at Raymond James Stadium that could cost between $700 million and $1.3 billion and how those costs could impact the Rays stadium deal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The JREP crew got together to review your feedback of the JRE summit, which took place in April, in Tokyo and online. What did you like, what didn't you like, and what's going to change in the next events?

Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Beau Morgan react to the news that Bobby Dodd Stadium is going to get some nice renovations after the Develop Fulton Board of Directors unanimously approved a bond inducement resolution of up to $70 million for a renovation project that will help modernize and upgrade the stadium on Georgia Tech's campus, and explain why they think the renovations are much needed and well deserved for Georgia Tech and Bobby Dodd Stadium.

We speak to a first time buyer, in the market for a super cheap holiday home - and then to an old "Japan hand" who's bought here for the very first time - and has a cautionary tale to share!

"Don't sit around waiting to feel motivated. You take some little actions, and that often gives you the motivation and the momentum to move forward." Our hosts, Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines, sit down to work through a HerMoney.com list of ten things to do when retirement is a decade away. The meta-lesson turns out to be bigger than any single item on it! The list, from Jean Chatzky's financial information service for women, gives them a useful scaffold, but what they keep returning to is the paralysis that keeps so many people from starting at all. Planning for retirement can feel like pushing a stone uphill; getting moving makes it roll the other way. The list items themselves span the practical and the personal. Test-drive potential retirement destinations before committing. Tackle home repairs now, while you still have a paycheck. Start volunteering, not just to give back but to road-test how you'll spend your time when work no longer fills it. On the financial side: understand what Medicare actually covers (spoiler: not dental, vision, or long-term care). Build your HSA if you're eligible. Track down old 401(k)s and check the beneficiaries on every account. Create your Social Security account online and verify your earnings record for errors. And on claiming age, Kevin pushes back on the blanket advice to "always wait" because Social Security strategy depends on how it fits the rest of your specific plan. The bonus tip says it all: say it out loud. Telling people you're planning to retire creates accountability. It makes the stone easier to push!   Key Topics: ●      Trying Out Retirement Destinations (04:24) ●      Home Repairs, Renovations, and Aging in Place (07:21) ●      Volunteering: A Test Drive for Your Time (12:02) ●      Reclaiming Your Calendar… and Your Identity (13:35) ●      Healthcare Costs, Medicare Myths, and HSAs (16:52) ●      Building a Social Network Outside the Office (21:04) ●      Checking In on Pensions and Old 401(k)s (25:30) ●      Why the 10-Year Mark Is the Right Time to Find a Financial Planner (27:21) ●      Social Security: "Wait" Is Not a One-Size-Fits-All Answer (29:33) ●      Creating Your Social Security Account (and Checking Your Earnings Record) (31:02) ●      Say It Out Loud (32:22)   Resources: Retirement Readiness Quiz: https://www.aarp.org/money/retirement/readiness-quiz/ The 5 Years Before You Retire and other books by Emily Guy Birken: https://www.emilyguybirken.com/books HerMoney.com Article Discussed in this Episode: https://hermoney.com/invest/10-things-you-should-do-when-retirement-is-10-years-away/   Take Back Retirement Episodes Referenced: Making Your Own Story: Finding Meaning After 50 with Diane Gansauer Redefining Retirement: Finding Your Creative Voice Through Comedy with Lynn Harris The Challenges and Opportunities of Defining Your Identity in Retirement with Elizabeth Parsons Practicing for Retirement: Balancing Creative Pursuits and Financial Planning with Mary Jo Hoffman Simplifying Medicare: What's Important For You To Know with Susan Sloan Cultivating Creative Connections for Lifelong Wellness with Claire Waite Brown Getting the Most from Social Security: Smart Strategies for Women with Heather Schreiber Smarter Social Security: Getting What's Yours Without Panicking   If you like what you've been hearing, we invite you to subscribe on your favorite platform and leave us a review.
