Tax Credit Vs Tax Refund
March 9th, 2011Question: Student Loan vs Credit Card debt – paying off?
With my tax refund, I will have enough money to pay off my credit card or I can apply the refund to my private student loan and pay about 35% of it.
Interest Rate- Student loan = 18.65%, Credit Card = 14.5%
My student loan will not enter repayment until the summer (if this matters). I would feel better paying down my student loan so the minimum payment is lower but paying off the card sounds nice as well.
Can you give me advice?
Answer: I would pay off the credit card. That way, you only have a monthly payment for the loan instead of one for the loan and one for the card.

Atlanta Home Buyers – $8000 Tax Credit Refund
Tax Credit Vs Rebate
September 9th, 2010
Question: Our house was built in ‘89, is it time to upgrade the HVAC considering rebates and tax credits?
We have dual zone (2 units) central air and heating. We are considering replacing the one unit (upstairs) with 98% efficiency unit. Our condenser fans were replaced couple of years ago. Is this worth doing? How do we calculate cost vs. savings?
Answer: EK, well the costs and savings really fluctuate for a variety of reasons. Your best bet is to seek the assessment of a local HVAC contractor in your area to get the actual local going rate in your area—as the cost of labor and material varies by location. Fortunately, there are plenty of local HVAC contractors seeking to give free estimates with no obligation, and taking advantage of this is the consumer-smart way to go about finding an accurate answer to your question.
A local HVAC contractor can easily assist you in this project of yours. If you negotiate well with the contractor and he buys the materials (i.e., the heating and cooling unit, etc.) for you, you may try to have him pass the discounted cost of the materials to you in exchange for giving him the installation job, as usually contractors get discounts (called “contractor’s discounts” / “contractor’s price”) when buying from suppliers because of the many purchases they make as required by their jobs..
Getting free estimates from local HVAC contractors is the key to your success in this home improvement project of yours. Here’s a great link to a handyman site that offers free very resourceful information to assist you in your project, and, ultimately, selecting a local HVAC contractor in an effort to have you get treated fairly by the contractor:
INFO on local HVAC contractors:
http://yourhandymanzone.com/Your_Handyman_Zone_Free_Estimates_Heating_Cooling.htm
I’m sure you’ll find the information you need, specifically the tips, useful as it relates to being treated fairly by contractors and exploring the consumer-wise approach of getting free written estimates to find the best contractor in your area.

The Internet. Just whatever is available online and what I have on my mind, including the inclusion of relevant sites, like the one cited that came about from my efforts, which is intended to be useful. Helping people get the relevant info they want is great.
