The Rise of Snowbirds Buying Homes for Cash in Florida.
Florida has long been a popular getaway for those looking to escape the harsh winters of the North. These seasonal residents, known as "snowbirds," typically come from colder regions such as the Northeast, Midwest, or Canada, seeking the warmth of Florida's climate. Florida’s sunny weather, scenic beaches, and relaxed lifestyle make it an appealing destination for retirees and anyone looking for a winter retreat. Popular areas like Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach, Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, North Port, Venice, and Sarasota have seen a notable increase in snowbirds purchasing property.
FIRPTA: Canadians/Snowbirds Selling Property in Florida
Are you a Canadian selling property in Florida? If so, you probably already know that the sale of your property in Florida is governed by the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA), a U.S. federal law legislated within the Internal Revenue Code Section 1445 to ensure the collection of tax obligations from the disposition of property by non-residents. To sell your property in Florida, start by listing it with our agency and accepting an offer. We’ll help you choose a title or escrow company familiar with Canadian sellers and FIRPTA requirements. FIRPTA compliance forms must be completed prior to closing. Canadian residents must file Forms 8288, 8288-A, and 8288-B with the IRS to report the sale. You’ll also need an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) to file U.S. tax returns.
