NONRESIDENT ALIEN U.S. TAXES
&
BUYING REAL PROPERTY ISSUES 
Understanding how U.S. tax laws apply to you, as a nonresident alien, is a daunting task and any error you make in completing the various forms can be costly. For instance, regardless of what country you are from and the tax treaties that are in place between the United States and your home country, you are still subject to US tax on all income earned in the U.S. That includes the sale of Real Property. And, the tax authorities can disallow expenses used to offset that tax if you do not file timely U.S. tax returns. Filing a return in your home country will not exempt you from filing U.S. tax returns.
Fortunately, there are strategies that we can use to lower your U.S. taxes. You may also be concerned about Inheritance (Death) taxes here in the U.S. There are remedies than can help in this area as well.
Another important thing to consider is not just your U.S. tax burden, or your home country tax burden, but the combined total. We have worked with several persons recently to restructure U.S. companies, such as an LLC and LLP, to ensure that the individuals were not in a situation where they were paying double tax.
Roberge & Company has helped individuals from nearly every country in the world, that come to the U.S. to purchase real estate as an investment, vacation home, or as a rental business, minimize their U.S. taxes. We can also assist in other tax areas as well, such as starting and operating a business, and pre-planning tax strategy for immigration. To learn how we can help you to maximize your after-tax income and profits,

Insurance >Hazard Insurance
Are you considering taking out hazard insurance on a property before you actually take title? It may be a good idea!
Even though you are not yet the owner of record, as the buyer, you have an insurable interest in a property the moment that you and the seller execute the sales agreement. As a matter of practice, however, buyers do not usually take out insurance until the papers change hands, and it should not be necessary if the agreement of sale is properly executed.
It is very important to both parties that the agreement states that the property will be insured for a specific amount. From the buyer's point of view, an adequate sum must be stipulated, and the agreement should not read "as now insured", which can indicate that the seller may not want to increase the insurance.
As a general rule, the amount of insurance on the buildings on a property should equal the sales price, less the value of the lot.
