asked:
We’re buying a house very soon, and although the carpets should be replaced we dont want to spend that much on a new carpet right now. (carpets are in good condition just have stains and path marks) What I want to know is should we spend the money to have a professional service come in, should we rent a unit from a local company (u-haul has a carpet cleaner rental for $20 a day does anyone have any positive/negitive feedback on going that way) Or should we buy a Hoover SteamVac (they rated the highest in consumer reviews) or another home use model. We have at least 600 square feet to clean and are on a budget, and have two toddlers running around spilling all the time…

I have found a system that will clean your carpets with a sponge type substance that cleans the carpet phenomenally. I had spilled some massage oil in the carpet and when cleaned up with this product it cleaned it up like it never happened. I was looking into having this as a business so am looking at market research.

I know that a use of baking soda is to clean carpets, and that you can leave it there and then vacuum it up. I realized that I did the first step, but sort of just scrubbed the white carpet with a dry towel and never vacuumed. Can leaving the baking soda on the carpet cause damage? Because I might not return to the house that this occurred in for a while. Is it urgent that I get there anytime soon? As in, can the baking soda leave a new stain?

In the current year David incorporates his carpet cleaning business which has been run as a single proprietorship for 5 years. He transfers the following asset to the business:
How much taxable gain will David recognize from the transfer of the assets to the corporation?
What is the corporation’s basis in this asset?
If David sells his stock in the new corporation to Bob for $71,000, what is the amount of his gain?

I’m planning on getting my carpets cleaned, but heard that the pre-spray treatment they use is toxic, and potentially harmful for my wife/baby. Does anyone have more info on this?
Thanks!
