Note from the author
"If you are a non-citizen putting a title in your name, it makes sense to have a qualified advisor help you avoid tax traps. Otherwise, if something were to happen, you would only be entitled to a $60,000 exemption from U.S. gift and estate taxes. Non-resident aliens (NRAs) pay a much higher rate of gift and estate taxes than U.S. citizens. The good news is that with good counsel, you can protect your loved ones and your assets.
