(a) General. Withholding of tax at source is
required on any disposition from the sale or exchange of
California real estate
by a
seller/
transferor. The rate of withholding is 3 1/3 percent of the sales
price, but the
seller/
transferor may elect an alternative withholding
calculation based on the gain required to be recognized from the sale as set
forth in FTB Form 593, Real
Estate Withholding Statement, or any successor form
designated by the Franchise Tax Board on its website at
www.ftb.ca.gov ("FTB Form 593"). The
required information specified in FTB Form 593 is set forth in subsection (h),
below. The requirement to withhold is the responsibility of the
buyer/
transferee, but may be performed by the
real estate escrow person on the
buyer's/
transferee's behalf. No withholding is required under the provisions
set forth in Revenue and Taxation Code section
18662,
subdivision (e)(3), or if an exemption certificate, on FTB Form 593, is
completed, signed, and submitted to the
real estate escrow person prior to the
close of escrow. For example, the
seller/
transferor may certify on FTB Form 593
that the property was the
seller's/
transferor's principal residence or that no
gain is recognized from the sale. The Franchise Tax Board may audit escrow
documents to verify compliance.
(b)
Statutory Basis and Rates. Revenue and Taxation Code section
18662,
subdivision (e), requires withholding of tax at source from any disposition,
sale or transfer of California real property at an amount equal to 3 1/3
percent of the sales price, unless an election is made to use an alternative
withholding calculation based on gain required to be recognized from the sale
on FTB Form 593. The alternative withholding calculation shall be based on the
maximum applicable tax rate under Revenue and Taxation Code sections
17041,
23151,
and
23186.
(c) Who Must Withhold -- Required
Notification and Responsibility.
(1)
Notification. Revenue and Taxation Code section
18668,
subdivision (e)(1), requires the real estate escrow person to provide the
buyer/transferee with written notice of the withholding requirements, unless
the buyer/transferee is an intermediary or accommodator in a deferred
exchange.
(2) Penalties for Failure
to Provide Notice. If the real estate escrow person fails to provide the
buyer/transferee with written notice, a penalty may be assessed of $500 or 10
percent of the amount required to be withheld, whichever is greater, unless it
is shown that the failure to notify the buyer/transferee is due to reasonable
cause.
(3) The
Real Estate Escrow
Person May Assist the
Buyer/
Transferee With the
Buyer's/
Transferee's
Withholding Obligations. Once the
buyer/
transferee is notified, it is the
buyer's/
transferee's responsibility to withhold. However, the
real estate
escrow person may assist the
buyer/
transferee in complying with the withholding
requirements by performing or assisting in the withholding, remitting the
required withholding, and completing FTB Form 593 and FTB Form 593-V, Payment
Voucher for Real
Estate Withholding, or any successor form designated by the
Franchise Tax Board on its website at
www.ftb.ca.gov ("FTB Form 593-V"). The required
information specified in FTB Form 593 and FTB Form 593-V is set forth in
subsection (h) and subsection (i), respectively, below. The
real estate escrow
person may charge a fee for this assistance not to exceed the amount set forth
in Revenue and Taxation Code section
18662,
subdivision (e).
(d)
Exemption and Withholding Requirements. No withholding is required if the
seller/
transferor establishes one of the following under subsection (d)(1) or
(d)(2):
(1) Full Exemption Under FTB Form
593. The Franchise Tax Board on FTB Form 593 may establish that no withholding
is required in the following instances:
(A)
Seller/Transferor is a Corporation or Partnership. No withholding is required
for a corporation or partnership incorporated or qualified to do business in
California (or where the entity continues to have a permanent place of business
and maintains a permanent staff within California after the sale.) Where the
seller/transferor is a disregarded entity for tax purposes, no withholding is
required if the owner of the disregarded entity is incorporated or qualified to
do business in California or continues to have a permanent place of business
and maintains a permanent staff within California after the sale.
(B) Sales Price of $100,000 or Less. No
withholding is required unless the sales price of the real property conveyed
exceeds $100,000. The "sales price" is normally the same amount as the "gross
proceeds" required for information reporting purposes as shown on the federal
form 1099-S. (See Treasury Regulation section 1.6045-4.)
(C) Deferred Exchange. No withholding is
required other than by an intermediary or an accommodator in a deferred
exchange. An intermediary or an accommodator in a deferred exchange is required
to withhold, even if the real estate escrow person fails to provide written
notice.
(D) Foreclosure. No
withholding is required as part of a foreclosure when the
buyer/
transferee
acquires California real property under one of the following circumstances:
1. At a sale pursuant to a power of sale
under a mortgage or deed of trust.
2. At a sale pursuant to a decree of
foreclosure.
3. By a deed in lieu
of foreclosure.
(E) Bank
Acting as a Trustee. No withholding is required when the seller/transferor is a
bank acting as a trustee, other than a trustee of a deed of
trust.
(2) Transfers
Requiring an Exemption Certificate to Exempt the Sale From Withholding on FTB
Form 593. No withholding is required if the
seller/
transferor completes and
signs an exemption certificate on FTB Form 593 stating, under penalty of
perjury, that one of the following applies:
(A) Principal Residence. No withholding is
required if the
seller certifies that the property conveyed was his or her
principal residence within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code section
121, as incorporated and modified
by the Revenue and Taxation Code, or that the last use of the property was as
the
seller's/
transferor's principal residence.
1. Generally, a home will qualify as a
principal residence if, during the five-year period ending on the date of sale,
the seller/transferor owned and used the property as his or her main home for
at least two years.
2. There are
exceptions to the two-year rule if the primary reason the
seller/
transferor is
selling the home is due to a change in the place of employment, health, or
other unforeseen circumstance, such as death, divorce, or loss of job. (See
Internal Revenue Code section
121 and Treasury Regulation
sections 1.121-1 through 1.121-5.)
3. If the property does not qualify for an
exclusion under Internal Revenue Code section
121, the
seller/
transferor may
claim the exclusion from withholding if the property was last used as the
seller's/
transferor's principal residence within the meaning of Internal
Revenue Code section
121, without regard to the
two-year time period.
4. Where
California law differs from federal law, California law
applies.
(B) Involuntary
Conversions. No withholding is required if the seller/transferor certifies on
FTB Form 593 that the transfer is the result of an involuntary conversion that
qualifies for deferral of gain under Internal Revenue Code section 1033, and
that he or she intends to replace the property with qualified property within
the required time period under Internal Revenue Code section 1033.
(C) Loss or Zero Gain. No withholding is
required if the seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that there is
either a loss or zero gain for California income tax purposes from the sale,
which results when the seller's/transferor's adjusted basis in the property is
more than or equal to the selling price (less selling expenses). In computing
gain, the seller/transferor may use previously deferred passive activity losses
that directly relate to the property being sold. He or she may not use losses
that are not directly related to the property, such as passive activity losses
or carry forwards from a different property, capital loss carry forwards, stock
losses, or net operating losses.
(D) Contributed Capital -- Transfers to a
Controlled Corporation or Partnership. No withholding is required where the
seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that the transfer qualifies for
nonrecognition treatment under Internal Revenue Code section 351 (property
transferred to a corporation controlled by the transferor) or Internal Revenue
Code section 721 (property contributed to a partnership in exchange for a
partnership interest).
(E)
Seller/Transferor is a Corporation. No withholding is required if the
seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that it has either qualified with
the California Secretary of State or has a permanent place of business in
California. This includes a limited liability company (LLC) taxable as a
corporation for federal and California income tax purposes.
(F) Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). No
withholding is required if the seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that
it is a REIT that is treated as a corporation and that the REIT has a permanent
place of business in California.
(G) Seller/Transferor is a Partnership. No
withholding is required if the seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 it
is a California partnership, or qualified to do business in California (or an
LLC that is classified as a partnership for federal and California income tax
purposes that is not a single member LLC that is disregarded for federal and
California income tax purposes).
(H) Tax Exempt Entities. No withholding is
required if the seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that it is a
tax-exempt entity under California or federal law (e.g., government agency,
Resolution Trust Corporation, or exempt, charitable, religious, or educational
organization).
(I) Insurance
Companies. No withholding is required if the
seller/
transferor certifies on FTB
Form 593 that it is an insurer within the meaning of Section
28 of Article XIII of the
California Constitution that pays the California gross premiums tax.
(J) Other Entities. No withholding is
required if the seller/transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that it is either
an individual retirement account (IRA), qualified pension plan, or charitable
remainder trust.
(3)
Transfers That May Partially or Fully Exempt the Sale From Withholding.
(A) IRC Section
1031 Exchanges. No withholding is
required on the initial transfer where the
seller/
transferor certifies on FTB
Form 593 that the transfer will qualify as:
1.
A Simultaneous Like-Kind Exchange. However, if the seller/transferor receives
proceeds (including excess debt relief) or non-like-kind property from the sale
(boot) in excess of $1,500, withholding is required at 3 1/3 percent of that
amount, unless an election is made to use the alternative withholding
calculation on FTB Form 593.
2. A
Deferred Like-Kind Exchange. If the seller/transferor receives any proceeds
(including excess debt relief) or non-like-kind property from the sale (boot)
in excess of $1,500, withholding is required at 3 1/3 percent of that amount,
unless an election is made to use the alternative withholding calculation on
Form FTB 593.
3. Failed Exchange.
Notwithstanding a
seller's/
transferor's certification on FTB Form 593, if the
exchange fails, does not occur, or does not meet the Internal Revenue Code
section
1031 requirements, the
intermediary or accommodator must withhold at 3 1/3 percent of the sales price,
unless an election is made to use the alternative withholding calculation on
FTB Form 593.
(B)
Installment Sales.
1. The buyer/transferee
must withhold 3 1/3 percent or the alternative withholding calculation
certified on FTB Form 593 on the principal portion (e.g., down payment)
received in escrow upon closing. The buyer/transferee must provide the
installment agreement terms and give a copy of the promissory note to the real
estate escrow person to remit with FTB Form 593 and FTB Form 593-V to the
Franchise Tax Board.
2. The
buyer/transferee must withhold and remit 3 1/3 percent or the alternative
withholding calculation certified on FTB Form 593 on the principal portion of
all installment payments following the close of escrow.
3. Installment Sale Payoff. The
buyer/transferee must withhold 3 1/3 percent or the alternative withholding
calculation certified on FTB Form 593 on the principal portion of a
seller/transferor-financed installment sale payoff or prepayment in escrow upon
closing.
(e) Withholding on Special Entities.
(1) Grantor Trusts. If the trust is a grantor
trust, then the seller/transferor is the grantor and withholding is required,
unless an exemption applies under FTB Form 593. A grantor trust is a trust
where the grantor retains substantial control and remains the owner (e.g., the
right to cancel or revoke the trust). A grantor trust is disregarded for
federal and California income tax purposes. Where the seller/transferor is the
grantor trust and unless an exemption applies under FTB Form 593, withholding
is remitted on FTB Form 593 and FTB Form 593-V and credited to the grantor.
Where applicable, FTB Form 593 and FTB Form 593-V, should be completed using
the individual's (grantor's) information.
(2) Trusts. If the trust is other than a
disregarded grantor trust, then the seller/transferor is the trust and
withholding is required, unless an exemption applies under FTB Form 593. Where
applicable, FTB Form 593 and FTB Form 593-V should be completed using the name
of the trust and the trust's federal employer identification number
(FEIN).
(3) Bankruptcy Trusts and
Estates. Withholding is required when a bankruptcy trust or estate sells the
property.
(4) Estates. Withholding
is required when an estate sells real property, unless the property being sold
qualifies as the decedent's principal residence or otherwise qualifies under
FTB Form 593.
(5) Conservatorships
and Receiverships. Withholding is required unless the conservatee or debtor (in
receivership) qualifies under the requirements of FTB Form 593. The conservator
or receiver should complete FTB Form 593 using the conservatee's or debtor's
information.
(6) Relocation
Companies. Sales to relocation companies are subject to the same rules as other
sales, and withholding is required. There is no withholding on the sale if the
relocating
seller/
transferor certifies on FTB Form 593 that the property was
the
seller's/
transferor's principal residence or if the
seller/
transferor
otherwise qualifies under the requirements contained in FTB Form 593.
Relocation companies themselves are subject to the same rules as other
non-individuals.
Example 1. A relocation company resells California real
property to a third party. There is no withholding on the sale if the
relocation company certifies it is a California corporation, is qualified to do
business in California, or otherwise qualifies under the requirements of FTB
Form 593. If the relocation company is not a California corporation, is not
qualified to do business in California, or does not meet the requirements of
FTB Form 593, withholding is required.
Example 2. An employer that holds title to California
real property gives a relocation company power of attorney to act on its behalf
in the sale of the property to a third party. No withholding is required on the
sale if the employer certifies on FTB Form 593 that it is a California
corporation, is qualified to do business in California, or has a permanent
place of business in California, or otherwise qualifies under the requirements
of FTB Form 593. If the employer has not met any of the above requirements set
forth in this Example 2, withholding is required. Because the relocation
company does not hold title, the employer must meet the withholding
obligations.
(f)
Procedures.
(1) Exemption Certificate and
Estimated Gain or Loss Certificate. If a seller/transferor seeks to qualify for
no withholding under the requirements set forth in the real estate withholding
exemption certificate on FTB Form 593, the seller/transferor must complete,
sign, and submit to the real estate escrow person the withholding exemption
certificate on FTB Form 593 prior to the close of the real estate transaction
to claim an exemption from withholding. Failure to provide a completed and
signed real estate withholding exemption certificate on FTB Form 593 by the
close of the real estate transaction will result in withholding. If the
seller/transferor seeks to establish a loss or zero gain, the seller/transferor
must also complete the real estate withholding-computation of estimated gain or
loss on FTB Form 593. All real estate sales/transfers qualifying for an
exemption from withholding are reportable to the Franchise Tax Board on FTB
Form 593, which can be filed on paper or electronically (where
allowable).
(2) Verification. Real
estate escrow persons are only required to verify exemption certifications on
FTB Form 593 to the extent that they have actual knowledge of the facts. If
they have no actual knowledge of the facts, then they must only verify that the
certificate, FTB Form 593, is complete and signed. The real
estate escrow
persons will be relieved of the withholding requirements if they rely in good
faith on a completed and signed real
estate withholding certificate, FTB Form
593. Real
estate escrow persons should not rely upon an incomplete or unsigned
certificate, FTB Form 593.
Example 1: A seller/transferor calculates the estimated
gain or loss and certifies on FTB Form 593 a loss on the transaction. The real
estate escrow person is not required to verify the amounts used in the
calculation.
Example 2: A seller/transferor completes, signs, and
submits to the real estate escrow person a real estate withholding exemption
certificate on FTB Form 593 prior to the close of escrow and certifies that the
sale is an installment sale. However, the buyer/transferee has not provided the
installment agreement terms or promissory note to the real estate escrow
person. The real estate escrow person may not rely on the real estate
withholding exemption certificate, FTB Form 593, and is required to withhold on
this transaction.
Example 3: A seller/transferor completes, signs, and
submits to the real estate escrow person a real estate withholding exemption
certificate on FTB Form 593 prior to the close of escrow and certifies therein
that a California partnership is selling the property, but the real estate
escrow person has actual knowledge that the recorded title of the property is
not in the name of the California partnership. The real estate escrow person
may not rely on the real estate withholding exemption certificate, FTB Form
593, and is required to withhold on this transaction.
(3) Electing the Alternative Withholding
Calculation. The seller/transferor making the election must complete and sign
FTB Form 593. The signature on Form 593 certifies the gain required to be
recognized and the alternative withholding calculation.
(g) Special Rules.
(1) Multiple Family Units. If the property
sold is a multiple family unit (duplex, triplex, apartment building, etc.) and
the seller/transferor lived in one of the units as his or her principal
residence, withholding is required for the portion of the sales price that is
not certified on FTB Form 593 as a principal residence. The sales price should
be allocated between the principal residence and the remainder of the units
using the same method that the seller/transferor used to determine depreciation
deductions. Withholding is required when the sales price of the property (all
units) exceeds $100,000, even if the portion of the sales price allocable to
the non-principal residence portion of the property does not exceed
$100,000.
(2) Multiple
Sellers/Transferors. When there are multiple sellers/transferors, the
withholding amount is calculated by applying the withholding rate to each
seller's/
transferor's proportionate share of the sales price.
Example 1: Withholding at 3 1/3 percent of sales
price:
Sales price $200,000
Sellers'/Transferors' ownership percentages:
A = 20%, B = 30%, C = 50%
Withholding per seller/transferor:
A $200,000 x 20% x .0333 = $1,332
B 200,000 x 30% x .0333 = $1,998
C 200,000 x 50% x .0333 = $3,330
Example 2: Alternative withholding calculation, assuming
a maximum tax rate of 12.3 percent in the year of sale:*
Gain on sale $200,000
Sellers'/Transferors' ownership percentages:
A = 20%, B = 30%, C = 50%
Withholding for individual seller/transferor:
A $200,000 x 20% x .123 = $4,920
B $200,000 x 30% x .123 = $7,380
C $200,000 x 50% x .123 = $12,300
*NOTE: The applicable tax rate is subject to
change.
(3)
Sellers/Transferors on Title for Incidental Purposes. If the incidental
sellers/transferors have no financial ownership, then their ownership
percentage is zero and there is no withholding required for them.
Examples of sellers/transferors who are on title for
incidental purposes are:
Example 1: A father is on title only because he cosigned
to help his daughter qualify for a loan. The first name on the loan is that of
the daughter who pays the loan payments. If father completes FTB Form 593
showing zero percentage of ownership, no withholding is required on the
proceeds due to the father's ownership interest. The daughter is the beneficial
owner of all of the property and is subject to the withholding
requirements.
Example 2: A son is on title only to receive the real
property as a beneficiary upon his mother's death. The real property is sold
while the mother is alive. If the son completes FTB Form 593 showing zero
percentage of current ownership, no withholding is required on the proceeds due
to the son's ownership interest. The mother is the owner of all of the property
and is subject to the withholding requirements.
(4) Sale of Multiple Parcels. Sales of
multiple parcels within the same escrow agreement constitute one transaction
for purposes of determining the withholding requirements under this regulation.
Withholding is required where the sale price of all properties exceeds $100,000
even though the sale price of each separate parcel in the transaction is under
$100,000.
Example: Parcel A is sold for $50,000. Parcel B and
Parcel C are sold for $10,000 and $60,000, respectively. All three parcels are
sold within the same escrow agreement. Because the sales price equals $120,000,
withholding is required.
(5)
Leaseholds/Options. The sale of a leasehold is considered a sale of a real
property interest and withholding is required. Withholding is required on an
option to buy real property that has been exercised where the property has been
transferred by the owner.
(6)
Personal Property Included in Real Estate Transaction. If personal property is
included in the sales price of the real property, withholding is computed on
the full amount. If the price of the personal property is stated separately in
the sales contract, withholding on the personal property amount is not
required.
(7) Short Sale
Transactions. Real property sold for less than the amount owed on the mortgage
is not excluded from withholding, unless the seller/transferor qualifies under
the requirements of FTB Form 593. The parties must arrange to cover payment of
the withholding.
