OF REVENUELife Estate and Remainder Factors; Pennsylvania Realty Transfer Tax [43 Pa.B. 3193]
[Saturday, June 8, 2013]In accordance with 61 Pa. Code § 91.165(d) (relating to reservations or conveyances of life estates), the Department of Revenue is required to periodically publish notice of the Life Estate and Remainder Factors and their effective date to be used for the calculation of the taxable value of a Life Estate and Remainder Interest in real estate.
Section 91.165(d)(1) of 61 Pa. Code provides that the factors will be based upon tables published by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for calculating the present worth of a Life Estate and Remainder Interest. The IRS table of factors to be used is the table based upon an average interest rate for the 36 months prior to publication of the factors in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The average interest rate rounded to the nearest two tenths of a percent for the 36 months prior to publication of this notice (June 2010—May 2013) is 1.8%.
Effective immediately, the Department is updating the Life Estate and Remainder Factors to account for changes in mortality and interest rates as follows:
