As you plan your estate, don’t overlook the generation-skipping transfer (GST) tax. Despite a generous, $5.43 million GST exemption, complexities surrounding its allocation create several tax traps for the unwary.

Real estate transfer tax is a tax imposed by states, counties and municipalities for the privilege of transferring real property within a jurisdiction. The tax is sometimes referred to as real estate conveyance tax, mortgage transfer tax or documentary stamp tax, among other terms.

The New York State and New York City tax laws have numerous traps for unwary nonresidents. To avoid one of the biggest tax hazards, nonresidents owning or renting homes within New York must be aware of the applicable residency tests and what records they should maintain to avoid a dual residency determination. Nonresidents of New York State are only taxed on income earned in or sourced to the state. New York City only taxes city residents. However, if a nonresident is not attentive to the residency tests, the tax consequences can have New York State, and possibly New York City, seeking to impose tax on all income, including interest, dividends, and capital gains, regardless of its source.

A good tax-planning technique is to sell a poor-performing security to “harvest” the loss and offset it against your capital gains. But what if you have high hopes for the security and would like to keep it in your portfolio?
