Episode 178: IN FOCUS: NYC Pied-à-Terre Surcharge with K. Eli Akhavan (Grant, Herrmann)

Join Jonathan I. Shenkman, President & CIO of ParkBridge Wealth Management, as he goes “IN FOCUS” to explore more advanced wealth planning topics.

This week, we go IN FOCUS where we explore more advanced wealth planning topics.

Today, we are joined by K. Eli Akhavan from Grant, Herrmann, Schwartz & Klinger LLP based in New York City. Eli will be discussing “NYC Pied-à-Terre Surcharge – What Advisors Need to Know.”

By way of background, New York City's pied-à-terre surcharge is now in the administration phase. The Department of Finance adopted its implementing rules in July, published a primary-residence addendum to the assessment roll on July 25, and is mailing notices to owners it treats as non-exempt by August 30 - after which the window to respond is short. Eli will discuss will who is actually a covered owner, how the primary residence exemption works when an apartment sits inside an LLC, a trust, or a stacked structure, why the January 5 taxable status date is unforgiving for buyers and renovations, and what to do when a notice lands. The focus is on what advisors and families need to do this fall, including the questions that the rules still leave open.
