SAVVY ESCROW TIP
** FIRPTA (Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act) Under FIRPTA, a buyer must withhold 10% of purchase price if the seller is a foreign person. Usually Escrow collects this and sends it directly to the tax collection agency.
** No withholding is required if the seller is a U.S. citizen; green cardholder (lawful resident); or resident alien (meets either the physical presence test-present in the U.S. for at least 183 days in the current calendar year; or the substantial presence test-present in the U.S. for a weighted average of 183 days over three years).
** At the time of purchase, inform your foreign buyers that they must acquire a U.S. taxpayer identification number (TIN) to have when they go to sale the property. Waiting until the time of sale to obtain a TIN may cause difficulty recovering money withheld pursuant to FIRPTA. |
10 Thanksgiving Celebrations Around the World
Be it with mooncakes in China or corn dolls in the UK, the fall harvest is a reason to celebrate and give thanks around the globe. The day of grace and gluttony we know as Thanksgiving is more than just the big meal before Black Friday. It has rather noble origins. When our pioneering forefathers arrived on American shores, they left the Mayflower in a tragic state. Throughout the winter at sea they suffered from exposure, scurvy, and outbreaks of contagious diseases. When only half of the original crew made it to the New World, an Abenaki Indian greeted them in their native tongue of English. Days later, he returned with Squanto, a member of the Pawtuxet tribe, who was sold into slavery to an English sea captain.
