Generally the buyer does not have to withhold if they acquire the property for use as a residence and the amount realized (sales price) is not more than $300,000. The buyer or a member of their family must have definite plans to reside at the property for at least 50% of the number of days the property is used by any person during each of the first two 12-month periods following the date of transfer. When counting the number of days the property is used, do not count the days the property will be vacant. For this exception, the buyer must be an individual purchasing in their own name.

Based on your answers above, it appears that there will be no withholding because your new buyer intends to use your property as their residence and the selling price is $300,000 or less. Please note that the buyer may be asked to sign an affidavit that they intend to use your property this way. Also, even if there is NO FIRPTA WITHHOLDING, you are still required to report the sale on a US income tax return. If you would like our help to apply for your US tax ID number and/or file this required tax return for you, please click NEXT to provide us with your property and contact information.
