What is the name of your state? Florida
Back in November of 2006, I put a $12,700.00 deposit down on a
pre-construction condo. Due to the drop in market prices (plus the
fact that I haven't been able to sell my current residence), I decided
not to go through with the deal and forfeit the deposit to the
builder.
Is the loss of this deposit tax deductible? If so, how is
it categorized?
