以下依黃明智提供的影片內容整理,並非已核對的逐字稿。
No Nevada individual income tax. Rental income has no Nevada individual state income-tax layer; federal and applicable other-state obligations still require review.
Nevada 無個人州所得稅;租金仍須檢視聯邦稅及其他州可能適用的義務。
Property-tax bill caps. Qualifying primary residences and certain rentals can receive a 3% cap; the general abatement percentage for other properties cannot exceed 8%. Eligibility and exceptions matter.
No Nevada individual capital-gains income tax. A sale can still have federal gain and depreciation-related tax consequences, plus applicable other-state tax.
Nevada 不另課個人資本利得所得稅;出售仍可能涉及聯邦利得、折舊相關稅負與其他州稅。
Washoe County transfer tax. The published rate is $2.05 per $500 of declared value or fraction, subject to applicable rules and exemptions: $2,050 on $500,000 of taxable declared value.
Nevada does not impose an individual state income tax. For an individual investor, that means no Nevada individual income-tax layer on rental income or a taxable sale gain. It does not establish your federal result, another state’s result, or an entity’s obligations. An LLC does not automatically make income tax-free.
Reno and Sparks investors still need a parcel-specific property-tax budget. Washoe County describes a 3% cap on qualifying primary-residence tax bills and a higher cap for other property; some rental dwellings can qualify for the lower cap. Rental affidavits must be filed annually. These are tax-bill abatement rules, not a 3% property-tax rate or a guarantee against every bill increase.
Reno、Sparks 投資人仍須逐址編列房產稅。Washoe County 說明符合條件的主要自住房稅單適用 3% 漲幅上限,其他房產適用較高上限;部分出租住宅也可能符合較低上限,出租房須按年提交聲明。這是稅單漲幅減免規則,不是 3% 稅率,也不保證任何情況下的稅單都不會超過上限。
Verify the current tax bill, abatement status, rental eligibility, and any new construction or change-of-use effects with the Assessor. Do not assume a seller’s tax treatment will match your intended use.
Nevada real property transfer tax can apply when title transfers and documents are recorded. The state lists a Washoe County rate of $2.05 per $500 of declared value or fraction, subject to applicable rules and exemptions. For illustration, $500,000 of taxable declared value produces $2,050 of transfer tax before other costs. Confirm the transaction’s calculation and any exemption with escrow and the Recorder.
Federal rental-income reporting, qualifying deductions and gain rules remain relevant. Nevada’s policy does not remove federal tax on a sale or depreciation-related consequences. Read the rental-property federal deduction guide for the separate treatment of operating costs, improvements, depreciation and loss limitations.
Owning a Nevada property alone does not change tax residency. California residents may owe California tax on worldwide income, including Nevada rental income. California-source rent or California real-property gains may remain taxable to California even after a move. Obtain advice based on actual residency, income source and ownership.
Is Nevada rental income tax-free? / Nevada 租金收入完全免稅嗎?
No. Nevada does not impose individual state income tax, but federal rental-income rules still apply. Another state may tax you based on residency or income source. / 不是。Nevada 無個人州所得稅,但仍有聯邦出租所得規則,其他州也可能依居民身分或所得來源課稅。
Does every rental receive a 3% property-tax cap? / 所有出租房都適用 3% 上限嗎?
No. Some qualifying rental dwellings may receive the lower cap, subject to eligibility and annual documentation. Other properties use the applicable general abatement rules. Confirm the parcel with the Assessor. / 不是。部分符合條件的出租住宅可能適用較低上限,須符合資格並按年提交文件;其他房產依一般減免規則,由估稅官確認。
Does a Nevada purchase end California tax residency? / 買 Nevada 房子就不再是加州稅務居民嗎?
No. Buying property alone does not resolve residency. California residents can owe California tax on worldwide income; nonresidents can owe it on California-source income. / 不會。單憑買房不能決定居民身分;加州居民可能須就全球所得繳州稅,非居民仍可能須就加州來源所得繳稅。
Is selling a Nevada investment property tax-free? / 賣 Nevada 投資房免稅嗎?
No. The absence of Nevada individual income tax does not eliminate federal gain or depreciation-related tax, transfer tax, or another state’s applicable tax. A 1031 exchange requires separate eligibility and timing review. / 不是。Nevada 無個人州所得稅不會免除聯邦利得與折舊相關稅負、移轉稅或其他州適用的稅;1031 交換須另查資格與期限。
