Property owners are costing the city of Madison millions of dollars by taking advantage of a loophole in a state law created in 2001. By registering the property as a limited-liability corporation, such as Steve Brown Apartments , LLC, rather than as a parcel of land, owners are allowed to sell property without filing the selling price with the city of Madison. The owner is then automatically exempt from real estate transfer fees and can easily avoid high property taxes because no sale price is recorded and the city does not know the property’s actual value. Shielding the actual value often results in an underestimation by the city of the property assessments and a lowering of the amount owners must pay in property tax. “It reduces taxes paid to Madison Area Technical College , the Madison School District and various entities on the property tax bill . Theoretically they’re getting away with not paying their fair share,” said City Council President Mike Verveer . Verveer said th...

Wealthy people often have business and investment interests around the globe. As such, they are drawn to foreign real estate . Canada’s high-net-worth residents are no exception, says Winston Chesterfield, director of custom research at Wealth-X, which provides market data on wealthy individuals. “They do these purchases primarily as investment decisions, and secondly, there’s this interesting balance between lifestyle and necessity,” says Mr. Chesterfield, who is based in London, referring to Canada’s nearly 8,600 ultra-high-net-worth residents (according to Wealth-X’s most recent survey) with more than $30-million in assets each. “Their businesses often have a global reach, so their habits in terms of property purchasing tend to be a lot more sophisticated than buying a ski lodge,” Mr. Chesterfield says. The fabulously wealthy gravitate to major cities and other desirable locales – be it for business, pleasure or both. Among the hot spots are these well-known destinations as well a...

The insolvency proceedings launched against Jaypee Infratech (JIL) have left over 30,000 people who invested in apartments spread across 27 projects of the real estate firm standing on shaky ground. This vulnerability stems from the fact that homebuyers figure very low in the creditors’ order for payment of dues under the Insolvency Code. Once the resolution and liquidation process is completed, a portion of the proceeds will go towards recovering liquidation costs . The workmen will be paid next, followed by banks and financial institutions involved in the projects. Payment of salaries to other employees will be made subsequently, after which government dues will be settled. It is only then that homebuyers will be taken into consideration. The Jaypee Group is developing projects spread over 3705 acres along the Noida- Greater Noida Expressway and Yamuna Expressway in Gautam Budh Nagar district through its two promoter companies - Jaypee Infratech and Jaiprakash Associates Ltd. ...

Cincinnati—2013 was a good year for the Cincinnati apartment market , as the city experienced an increase in demand thanks to improving employment , income growth and a swelling millennial population . According to Marcus & Millichap, 600 apartments were delivered last year, vacancies dropped to 4.5 percent—the lowest year-end level in years—and average rents were fast approaching $800 per month. And the commercial real estate brokerage firm expects Cincinnati ’s apartment market to perform the same this year. Forbes recently reported that Cincinnati is the third most affordable city in the United States. Although the median price for a new home in the area was set at around $133,000, the rental market was still the top performer last year. And apartment rents are expected to continue to increase in 2014, for the fifth consecutive year. All of this is thanks to the growing population of young professionals. Cincinnati’s 20- to 34-year-old population, with its live-work-play lifes...
