    I have noticed that a few REITs in Australia declare 100% of their distribution as tax deferred. Are these a return of capital? Can someone explain to me how does Australia treat REIT distributions for tax purposes?

    Does anyone here know if the owner of the REIT is a resident of the United States, how is withholding done? How is the distribution classified for foreign withholding purposes? As a non-resident of Australia, I would be afraid that they might classify this in some way that results in 30% withholding (or worse).
