I know much of the information from BP is free in terms of blog posts, podcast, YT videos and forum but I'm old school and like a comprehensive book I can crack open.

I own a media business specializing in video for social media and live events.

As applied to 1031 exchanges, the most relevant exceptions that allow you to disregard FIRPTA include:You (the Buyer) are going to be using the property as your principal residence, and the fair market value is less than $300,000The Seller provides you with a Certificate of Non-Foreign Status (meaning that FIRPTA does not apply)If the foreign Seller obtains a FIRPTA Withholding Certificate by filing Form 8288-B.It is important to note that the foreign Seller cannot submit the Form 8288-B until there is a valid real estate contract.

I am gathering all my resources , first of all and listening to different videos but the price is very expensive for a person that doesn't have it.
