CW 44-113 – Net Income
What action is taken when the participant has a
home that is not used as the primary residence
and the value is over the property limit?
When the property (other than a home/place of
residence) is over the property limit, the AU must
make a good faith effort to sell the property.
If the property is over the property limit and the
property is producing income (i.e., rent, etc.), the
net income from the property (including property in
which a life estate is held) is computed as follows
until the property has been sold:
Deduct from the gross income all normal items
of expenses. Expenses include:
o Taxes/assessments;
o Interest on encumbrance payments (do
not deduct principal payments);
o Insurance;
o Utilities (if applicable); and
o Upkeep and major repairs.
