The Orchards Group home sales in 2012 incredibly rose 123 percent from 2011, with 58 homes sold between their East Cherokee and Brannon Oak Farm communities.

End of the Year Tax Checks – Save For 2013

To most people, the only thing worse than thinking about ID theft protection is thinking about taxes. It is just one of those financial headaches most of us try to forget until ‘tax season’ is upon us. However, the experts at the Equifax Finance Blog want you to start thinking about you taxes before 2012 is over, because they claim it can really help you out in the New Year.

In their recent article, “Four Tax Checks to Perform Before the End of the Year,” those with financial expertise agree that a few end of the year tax checks can really help out in 2013 when it is time to do your taxes.

First, they recommend paying all of your outstanding and upcoming medical expenses. If you can manage to pay your medical bills down to 7.5 percent in 2012 you will be able to deduct them on your upcoming taxes. However, this percentage will change to 10 percent in 2013, so it’s better to pay some of these bills down now, if possible.
