If the property will be sold for a loss but it is not under contract yet, can I go ahead an apply for the exemption certificate on 8288-B so that 0 is withheld at closing ? The form requires a transferee/withholding agent information. The seller is listing the property for less than what he bought it for and he'd like to get this form processed way ahead of time so there's no issues at closing.
