Key Terms
cusipfinancial
A CUSIP is a nine-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a U.S. or Canadian financial security—such as a stock, bond, or fund share—like a Social Security number for an investment. It matters to investors because brokers, exchanges and record-keepers use the CUSIP to match trades, track ownership, settle transactions and pull accurate records, reducing errors and ensuring money and securities go to the right place.
short-term capital gainfinancial
A short-term capital gain is the profit an investor realizes when they sell an asset they owned for a short period—typically one year or less—and it is taxed at higher, ordinary income tax rates rather than lower long-term rates. It matters because taxes reduce the money you keep from a trade, so knowing whether a gain is short-term can change decisions about how long to hold an investment, similar to choosing between a fast but costly service and a slower, cheaper option.
unrecaptured section 1250 gainfinancial
A portion of the taxable profit realized when selling depreciable real estate that represents previously claimed depreciation deductions and is taxed at a special, generally higher capital-gains-related rate (capped at 25% under U.S. tax rules). Think of it as paying back part of the tax benefit you took earlier; it matters to investors because it reduces the after-tax proceeds from a sale and can change the economics and timing of selling property or property-related investments.
section 199a dividendsfinancial
Section 199A dividends are certain dividend payments from real estate investment trusts (REITs) and publicly traded partnerships that qualify for a special U.S. tax deduction allowing up to a 20% reduction of the income they create. For investors, that means these payouts are taxed differently than regular dividend income—they don’t get the lower capital gains rate but can lower taxable income through the deduction, similar to getting a partial tax rebate on that income.
section 897 gainsregulatory
Section 897 gains are profits that a non‑U.S. person realizes when selling an interest in U.S. real property, such as land or buildings, and are subject to special U.S. tax rules. Think of it like a mandatory tax check at closing for foreign sellers: it can reduce net proceeds, trigger withholding and extra filing obligations, and therefore affects valuation, deal structuring and cash expected by investors.
section 1231 gainsregulatory
Section 1231 gains are the net profits from selling or exchanging business properties—such as buildings, machinery, or land—held for more than one year that the tax rules treat as long-term capital gains. They matter to investors because they often get taxed at lower capital-gain rates, but if overall results are a net loss those losses are treated like ordinary losses against regular income; think of it as a seesaw that favors the most beneficial tax outcome for long-held business assets.
section 1061regulatory
Section 1061 is a U.S. tax rule that changes how certain profit shares earned by investment managers—commonly called carried interest—are taxed: if the partnership interest is held less than three years, gains from that interest are treated like ordinary income rather than lower-taxed long-term capital gains. For investors this matters because it can reduce the after-tax returns of funds and influence manager behavior—think of it like a minimum holding period you must meet to qualify for a better tax rate.
real estate investment trust (reit)financial
A real estate investment trust (REIT) is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-generating real estate like shopping malls, apartments, or office buildings. Investors buy shares of the REIT, making it easy for people to invest in real estate without buying property themselves, and it often pays regular dividends from the rent it collects.
