A New Type of Pied-à-Terre Tax: A Surcharge on Non-Primary Owners
At the end of last year, we discussed the latest pied-à-terre tax proposal introduced in the New York Legislature, Senate Bill S44B, and how it compared with prior versions reported in this blog over the past six years. (As you may recall, New York State Senator Brad Holyman sponsored the original proposal to impose a real property tax on nonprimary residences in 2014). This past weekend, the New York Assembly released its Tax and Revenue budget proposals for 2021-22, Assembly Bill 3009-B (the “Assembly Proposal”), which includes a new type of pied-à-terre tax, a surcharge on the owner! (The Senate declined to include such tax in its budget proposal.)

New Jersey Income Tax Planning Opportunity: Delaware Trusts
A significant benefit of using trusts is the ability to minimize state level income taxes. The availability of this strategy depends on the residence of the trust creator (the “settlor”); the residence of the trustee; the residence of the trust beneficiaries; the type of assets owned by the trust; and the type of income earned by the trust. When all of the factors align correctly, the trust settlor can minimize, or even eliminate, state level income tax on the trust assets.
New York’s Potential New Pied-a-terre Tax and Expanded Real Estate Transfer Tax: Nuts and Bolts of the Proposed Law
As reported here last month, a recent purchase of a $238 million apartment in New York City has re-sparked a debate among New York officials about taxing second homes owned by nonresidents. As New York’s lawmakers look to finalize a budget by April 1st, and to find new ways to fund New York City’s subway system, the pied-a-terre tax is viewed as a new quill in the arsenal. (The Assembly Budget Proposal is A. 2009-B).
