     Note: Arizona is a community property state. Property acquired by a husband and wife is presumed to be community property unless legally specified
     otherwise. Title may be held as “Sole and Separate.” If a married person acquires title as sole and separate, his or her spouse must execute a disclaimer deed
     to avoid the presumption of community property. Parties may choose to hold title in the name of an entity, e.g., a corporation; a limited liability company;
     a partnership (general or limited), or a trust. Each method of taking title has certain significant legal and tax consequences; therefore, you are encouraged to obtain
     advice from an attorney or other qualified professional.

Arizona as a Foreign Buyer
and how FIRPTA applies!


qTAll funds deposited for the escrow must be by wire transfer.
qTOut of US Wire Transfers / Swift Fee: International transfers are executed through SWIFT,
  Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication, and there is an additional
  charge for this type of transfer.
  uT The charge is deducted from the wired funds and varies from bank to bank. The charge is typically a flat rate and
     does not exceed $50.00, so we recommend that our clients wire an additional $50.00 when wiring from outside of
     the U.S.

qTWhen a foreign owner gets ready to sell, they could be subject to a 10% (of the Sales Price)
  withholding unless the transaction is exempt from FIRPTA.
qTMost common exemption: Sales Price is not more than $300K. The Buyer or a member of
  their family must have 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 twelve month periods after
  sale.
qTOther Exemptions that may apply are:
  uT Seller to provide a certificate showing they are not a foreign seller
  uT Seller receives a withholding certificate from IRS excusing withholding

Note: Arizona is a community property state. Property acquired by a husband and wife is presumed to be community property unless legally specified otherwise. Title may be held as “Sole and Separate.” If a married person acquires title as sole and separate, his or her spouse must execute a disclaimer deed to avoid the presumption of community property. Parties may choose to hold title in the name of an entity, e.g., a corporation; a limited liability company; a partnership (general or limited), or a trust. Each method of taking title has certain significant legal and tax consequences; therefore, you are encouraged to obtain advice from an attorney or other qualified professional.
  • 8. Buying a Home in Arizona as a Foreign Buyer and how FIRPTA applies! qTAll funds deposited for the escrow must be by wire transfer. qTOut of US Wire Transfers / Swift Fee: International transfers are executed through SWIFT, Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication, and there is an additional charge for this type of transfer. uT The charge is deducted from the wired funds and varies from bank to bank. The charge is typically a flat rate and does not exceed $50.00, so we recommend that our clients wire an additional $50.00 when wiring from outside of the U.S. qTWhen a foreign owner gets ready to sell, they could be subject to a 10% (of the Sales Price) withholding unless the transaction is exempt from FIRPTA. qTMost common exemption: Sales Price is not more than $300K. The Buyer or a member of their family must have 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 twelve month periods after sale. qTOther Exemptions that may apply are: uT Seller to provide a certificate showing they are not a foreign seller uT Seller receives a withholding certificate from IRS excusing withholding If applicable see forms: W-7 (application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) 8288-B (Application for Withholding Certificate for Dispositions by Foreign Persons of U.S. Real Property Interests) Go to www.irs.gov and click on Forms and Publications to get copies of these and other forms.
