This course will provide tax professionals and advisers to exempt organizations with a practical guide to the planning opportunities, tax risks, and reporting obligations of exempt organizations investing in real estate assets. The panel will outline when rental and sale income is exempt and when not, discuss the impact of debt financing on tax and reporting obligations, and provide examples of calculating and apportioning proceeds and income between exempt purposes and unrelated business income.

Description

While exempt organizations are generally not subject to income tax, many nonprofits receive unrelated business taxable income (UBTI) subject to tax (UBIT). Navigating the UBTI rules for rental income and sale gain for organizations owning real property can be a significant challenge and concern.

Investment in real estate by an exempt organization in a joint venture or other partnership with a taxable entity can complicate the tax treatment of income or gain from the real property. The Code provides structures to exempt from tax-specific income that it would otherwise treat as UBTI. However, tax advisers must have a thorough grasp of the rules to avoid costly consequences from a reclassification of income.

Listen as our panel of experienced nonprofit tax advisers provides a deep dive into the rules and reporting requirements governing UBTI for exempt organizations.
