Today TaxMama hears from Darl in Texas who asks. “Are there any U.S. tax ramifications on property in Mexico that is owned and sold by a U.S. citizen, and for which the monies would be deposited into a U.S. bank account?”
Dear Darl,
Of course. It’s all taxed.
As a U.S. citizen or U. S. resident, you are responsible for reporting all your worldwide income.
You report the sale just like any other sale here in the U.S.
If you held the property for more than a year, you’ll pay less in taxes, because of the long-term capital gains.

Or you’re entitled to deduct the Mexican taxes as other taxes when you use itemized deductions.
I hope you make lots of money!
