<p class="MsoNormal">I am working on a transaction in which the seller is a unincorporated partnership in another country (as described to me) in which a US Citizen and a non US Citizen have an interest. These folks, upon sale, would like to avoid a FIRPTA
Tax issue.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any ideas on how they could do that without running afoul of the law? These folks put this property into this unincorporated partnership pro se.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All thoughts appreciated.</p>
