Income-producing real or personal property is excluded as a resource if it meets the following requirements:
If equity in the property exceeds $6,000 and the six percent net annual return is met, the equity in excess of $6,000 must be combined with other countable resources and applied toward the resource limit.
If the net annual return is less than six percent of the equity value, the total equity is an includable resource.
If more than one nonbusiness income-producing property is involved, the total equity value of all nonbusiness income-producing property is considered within the $6,000 limit and the return rate of six percent of equity applies to each property. Any property which does not meet the six percent return rate must be counted toward the resource limit together with any equity which exceeds the $6,000 limit.
Liquid resources are not considered property essential to self-support except when used as part of a trade or business.
