If you are a foreign national purchasing or selling property in Florida, you will probably be expected to comply with FIRPTA (Foreign Investor in Real Property Tax Act). This could result in a substantial amount of withholding from your net sale proceeds and a tax return due at the end of the year. Most people are not aware that they do not have to wait to sell the property to comply with FIRPTA. You can plan prior to buying the property to limit your FIRPTA tax exposure.
