Do foreign sellers of North Bay Village condos pay FIRPTA withholding?
Generally yes — buyers must withhold up to 15% of the price when the seller is a foreign person, reconciled on the seller's US return; reduced-withholding certificates exist. It's a closing-mechanics issue, not a penalty, but it surprises North Bay Village sellers who didn't plan for it. Loop in a tax professional early; we'll coordinate the transaction side.
Read from HUD’s condominium list, the VA condominium report, FL DBPR filings and county registry and building records, compiled 2026-08-08. Figures describe what was on file that day; a missing filing is recorded as unconfirmed rather than as a finding, and conventional (Fannie/Freddie) standing is not publishable in either direction.
