One rule ties it together: choose your structure before the offer, not before the sale.
It shapes your FIRPTA exposure, your estate tax ($60K NRA exemption vs $15M), and your income tax while you hold.

Not legal/tax advice.
Most international buyers in Miami Beach learn about FIRPTA at the closing table.
That's too late.
Here's what you need to know before you make an offer π§΅
The second myth: "The 15% withheld is my tax."
It's not. It's a prepayment on the gross sale price, not your actual gain.
If your real tax is lower (or you sold at a loss), you file a U.S. non-resident return and get it back. Form 8288-B can even reduce it before closing.
The one rule that saves money: decide the structure before you make an offer β retitling after closing can trigger cost and tax.

General info, not legal or tax advice β talk to your attorney and CPA.
The question we get most from international buyers in Miami Beach isn't "which condo?" β it's "should I hold it in an LLC or a trust?"
Short answer: it depends. Here's the honest version π§΅
So it's not LLC vs trust β sophisticated buyers often use both, for different jobs.
What's right depends on whether you're a U.S. or foreign buyer, your estate-tax exposure, and how many properties you hold.
Miami Beach condos in 2026 are a two-speed market. The broad median is down ~9% YoY. The $1M+ luxury tier is firm, and at the very top, up double digits. Here's what's actually happening π§΅
Miami Beach is in a pullback.
Median sale prices β12.8% YoY (Redfin). https://t.co/TBUt8wCFDV confirms.
Homes sold UP +4.6%. Active listings β15.6%. Inventory clearing at lower prices.
Patient buyer, motivated seller. Different from "median down."
Buying Miami Beach property from abroad isn't complicated β but four details decide whether your closing is smooth or expensive.
Visa. FIRPTA. Ownership structure. Wiring funds.
