Tax by Industry: Real Estate

DOWNLOAD

Real estate investment trusts (REITs), private equity funds and other real estate owners and operators must competitively source and qualify investments, structure funds and effectively develop and operate their properties. From attracting initial capital to facilitating a successful exit, virtually every real estate-related decision and transaction has tax implications.

To identify issues and deal breakers early on, real estate investors require in-depth due diligence from a tax perspective. You should be familiar with how strategic investment structuring can impact federal, state and foreign income taxes — and therefore impact after-tax yield. And, of course, timely and accurate tax compliance is critical for complying with regulations, including, in the case of REITS, maintaining favorable tax status.
