Topics Covered in This Webinar

Owning U.S. real estate can result in significant benefits for Canadians, both in terms of additional rent revenue or the continued opportunity to vacation in a warmer climate during the cold Canadian winters. U.S. real estate investments have been on the rise for Canadian individuals and international investors. Wrong tax structures may prove costly down the line, especially on exit. In this webinar, we will review the FIRPTA withholding framework that applies in case of sale or disposition of U.S. real property, as well as techniques that can be used to mitigate the FIRPTA withholding impact.

 

Here’s just a sample of what we’ll cover during this webinar:
