Buying a home in Hawaii is the ultimate dream, but dealing with the U.S. tax system can feel like a nightmare for foreign investors. If you’re a foreign national looking to purchase luxury real estate in Honolulu or across the Hawaiian Islands, the IRS requires a U.S. tax ID. Without it, you risk losing 15% of your investment to FIRPTA withholding.

In this video, I break down the alphabet soup of American tax IDs—SSN, EIN, and ITIN—and show you exactly which one you need based on how you structure your Hawaii property purchase. Whether you are an individual buyer from Tokyo or Vancouver needing an ITIN, or a foreign LLC seeking an EIN, I outline a clear, 30-day roadmap to secure your tax ID safely and correctly.

With over 22 years of experience navigating complex international transactions and protecting my clients’ wealth, I ensure that the only thing you have to worry about is which ocean view you prefer.

Are you ready to make your Hawaii real estate dream a reality? My team and I at Island Dragonfly seamlessly handle the luxury buying process from start to finish.
