Best Answer

You need to check with a lawyer and/or accountant. In general, though, a capital gains tax can be imposed by only one of the jurisdictions. If you're talking a fairly high amount, it's well worth getting advice ahead of any decision to sell the US property. Although you can't avoid payment, you do have a legal right to minimize as much as possible.
