2. Capital Gains from Sale of Primary Residence in Trust
  
  Thanks, Taxing! They have lived in AZ since '58 which is a community property state. So if I understand correctly, that means the new basis is the year that Dad died? The housing market has increased quite a bit since he passed, so I'm hoping she wouldn't owe a thing. Every dollar we save...

3. Capital Gains from Sale of Primary Residence in Trust
  
  Hey Jack!!!! You're spot-on that they've made improvements since 1959, including an addition to the house. Don't know how we'll determine how much they paid for an addition that was done in 1981, but I'm sure there's someone, somewhere that can do a guesstimate. You're also right that her...

4. Capital Gains from Sale of Primary Residence in Trust
  
  Arizona Hi All; It's likely that my elderly Mother will soon need to go into a Memory Care facility, as it's been determined she can no longer live on her own. Background: Her home (that she owned with my late father since 1959) is paid off. In the late 90s, she and Dad had a trust created...

5. Alzheimer's and Guns
  
  A bit of good news: sister found both the gun and the rifle and removed the ammo. The ammo will be stored outside of Mom's house, it's highly unlikely she'll notice. I've got Mom on the waiting list at the neurologist's in case there's a cancellation; otherwise her initial appt isn't until 8...

6. Alzheimer's and Guns
  
  Eldest sister is on "unloading" detail tonight IF she can find the weapons. I'm not a fan of someone thinking they have a live weapon in most cases, but I don't know what else to do at this point.

7. Alzheimer's and Guns
  
  Took Mom to see her PCP a couple weeks ago; that's when I asked for the referral for neuro-testing. So he's aware. And just got back from Mom's. She and sister got into a squabble about the guns, so she hid them after sister went to bed (she works nights) and before I got there. Mom's so...

  That's today's plan -- husband is going with me so we can tag team it. We can get the guns out, but if she does as I suspect and calls the police, I don't think I'm legally able to keep them from her.

  AZ 88 year old Mom is likely to be given an Alzheimer's diagnosis soon. She's having severe memory issues and her paranoia is getting worse by the day. My oldest sister is staying with Mom temporarily (?) and reported that Mom has placed a rifle by the front door and a handgun by the side door...

10. Whose wall is it?
  
  As many years as I've hung out here, you'd think I would've thought to include my state! A s Blue mentioned, I'm in AZ. We told SRP that we'd be willing to purchase the strip of land & wall, but never thought about an requesting an easement. Of course, if it really does belong to the feds, I...

11. Whose wall is it?
  
  We purchased our current home (that sits on an acre) in late 2011 from ING bank, as the property had been foreclosed. There was a 6' block wall in place surrounding the backyard when we bought it. The previous owner (who lost it to the bank) is the one who had the wall built on the West and...

14. Car likely totaled - now what?
  
  I'm very, very fortunate - bruised hands, jammed up thumb, and air-bag abrasions. Sore neck, but nothing broken. I'm just glad that everyone walked away (including the driver/passenger of a third car which got smashed into). Air bags and seatbelts really do save lives.

15. Car likely totaled - now what?
  
  @adjusterjack Jack, I have some questions that are directly in your wheelhouse. My 2015 Equinox is likely totaled after some knucklehead thought I had a stop sign and he darted out in front of me yesterday. I wasn't able to avoid him; my car's right front end is mostly caved in. So here's...

16. Increase in 401(k) contribution
  
  What an odd choice -- rather than pay a debt you owe you'd rather overeat.

  If you can afford to increase your 401K contribution by 3%, then you can afford to pay your creditor that same amount. You just don't want to.

  If these are deliveries from Amazon or UPS, they have alternatives to home delivery. Like locked boxes at convenience stores.

19. How to get ICE to take this case seriously?
  
  How do you suppose she'd be able to sell properties that don't have her name on the deed? Perhaps your concerns are so overblown that ICE is not taking you seriously.

  What do you mean by the above? What do you think she's going to be able to do with those "legal deed documents" just by having them in her possession?
