What are the capital gains tax consequences for US investors investing in overseas realestate?

I am interested in raising an international investment real estate fund for american investors targeting eastern europe.

It depends on the country and If you are using a moneycorp account or just your American bank account. I built a company to invest in Dubai, UAE for example where there are no capital gains taxes nor income taxes. whichever state you live can still impose taxes upon your profit however, so that is where the offshore or moneycorp account benefits you.

Just keep your money overseas and you should have to pay taxes on them. It's when you bring the money back over to the US when it becomes a problem.
