Investing in U.S. real estate as a foreign individual or entity comes with its own set of tax implications and considerations.

Our team is well-equipped to assist you in structuring your foreign real estate investments in a tax-efficient and compliant manner. Whether you need guidance on establishing offshore structures or addressing estate tax concerns, we are here to support you every step of the way.

We understand the complexities surrounding foreign investment in U.S. real estate and offer comprehensive services to help you navigate these challenges effectively, such as:

  • Entity Structuring: We help clients choose the most tax-efficient entity structure for their U.S. real estate investments, whether it’s a limited liability company (LLC), partnership, corporation, or real estate investment trust (REIT). Our goal is to maximize asset protection and minimize tax exposure.
