Equal Tax Rules for REITs: Easing Real Estate Investments.

This act establishes equal tax treatment for publicly offered, non-traded Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and exchange-traded REITs. This means foreign investors in these funds will be treated similarly, potentially encouraging more investment in U.S. real estate, which could impact the property market and capital availability.
Key points
Amends tax rules for foreign investment in real property (FIRPTA).
Publicly offered, non-traded REITs will receive the same treatment as exchange-traded REITs.
May increase the attractiveness of U.S. real estate investments for foreign investors.
