25 February 2024 | 13 replies
Ideally, the Borrower would make a single payment like they are used to and my Investor has security based on the hypothecated Note.Or, must/should I have Investor in 1st position with a Security Instrument and Note based on agreed to terms and then create a Note Rider for a Wrap Loan between my LLC and Borrower spelling out those agreed to terms along with a 2nd Security Instrument in 2ndposition.Example:Borrower Pays: 12% and 3 PointsInvestor gets; 8% and 2 points (spelled out in a Note)LLC gets: 4% and 1 pointPerhaps there are a number of ways to skin this cat but I’m looking for a simple, yet protective, approach for both Investor and LLC.Thanks,Steve

Originally posted by @Nicholas Aiola:@Jonathan Bren The portfolio income tax exemption allows non-US investors to lend to US borrowers and not pay US tax on or file US tax returns as a result of the associated interest income.That said, there are a lot of rules and pitfalls to be aware of.This excerpt from a website (https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/the-portfolio-in...) sums it up pretty well:...as a general matter, if (i) a non-U.S. lender (which is unrelated to the U.S. borrower, is not a bank, is not a CFC, and is not engaged in the conduct of a U.S. trade or business), (ii) lends money to a U.S. borrower pursuant to (iii) a registered debt instrument, (iv) which pays a fixed rate of interest, and (v) the non-U.S. lender provides adequate documentation as to its non-U.S. status, then the interest payable pursuant to the loan should qualify for the portfolio interest exemption and, in such a case, no U.S. tax would arise with respect to such interest.I would recommend consulting with an attorney and CPA familiar with US/foreign tax laws to ensure all of the correct steps are being taken.
