We have a tax treaty, in the end you pay the the federal and state rate of your home state. If you are over deducted by the Uk government, you get a refund.

The treaty makes it so you're not double taxed. If you're being paid on a UK work visa you'll pay UK tax as well as a supplement for NHS. But you won't have to pay tax in the US (you still have to file a return)
If you are not on a work visa and are only there as a tourist, you're technically not supposed to work but yeah you can just file taxes in the US like normal. Your company likely won't permit it though

I would pay sales and local taxes if I rent.. Healthcare would be through my private insurance. If I take any courses, I or the bank would pay.
I don't think you understand how it works here
You are free to have private healthcare (As all citizens are) but until such things are verified you are welcome to the same regular healthcare that everyone else is (And your private healthcare doctors are also NHS doctors for 66% of their working week)
Lawyers, like the US, can be private too - no issue there. But should the need ever come where you need the state to cover you in that regard, you get what everyone else gets.
Private, in the UK at least, means paying the same as everyone else and then paying extra for the extra. You don't bypass the everyone else part regardless of where you say you are from
I take it you've not been to other countries either?
Some do double taxation and others have alternative means. But you do always get taxed and how that is sorted out later in your home country is done afterwards once the appropriate monies have found their way to the pockets of those allowing your entrance into their areas. If you are working you are not a tourist and so sales tax (Already included in every item) and local taxes (Why I have a PA) are things which some on top of the income tax and national insurance.
If your bank were serious about sending you overseas, they'd have someone talk you through all this and remove all the worries by employing someone to do all that work. And expenses would take care of everything else. You'd just be making money and never actually spending it
But that part might come later, should you best the competition wanting into those markets

Yes, and when you are in the UK you have access to the police, healthcare, lawyers, education and all the other things that come with the accommodation. They aren't optional and you will be charged for them
I'm sure if you, and your bank, were serious about having Edinburgh offices and US employees working in them this would all be known already

Lol, I would think that’s not how it works.
Following azn.

I wouldn't pay UK taxes. Just pay the American rate of my home state as a non resident.

Dunno my dude, 90,000 USD is 67K in UK money which, after tax leaves you with £49K to spend as you see fit.
From that you'd need rent which, depending on what you can live with, isn't very cheap in Edinburgh. Even student accommodation is well noted to be astronomical. AirBnB aren't allowed there any more as tourists are more than happy to splash out an awful lot for short term stays and so prices generally are very high in Summer (Fringe festival) and Winter (Hogmanay) with other attractions like Beltane keeping that lift decent between.
A decent house/flat will be half your income and then there's all the other costs which add up quickly
I'd say, if you didn't save, you would have about £1,000 a month to play with.
That's a couple of concerts, a few meals and the odd night out per month. Some can get by on that, especially if you are busy at work. But it's not a lavish lifestyle

I make $90,000.00 and I can rent out my townhouse for $2500.00 a month. I should be able to live comfortably in Edinburgh.

I just thought that when you said bank, well, you meant bank.
The folk I know get the usual deal. Serviced apartments, club memberships and access to areas where they don't have to worry about the minutiae of everyday life.
If you are renting yourself that's a whole different kettle of fish.
Condo too, you'd be looking for something in the West, between Ingliston and Corstorphine, or down by the river. The Old Town and the New Town have rules against such buildings, far too shoddy looking for the prestige and heritage represented there

It's not as bad as London.

If you have to ask, it's more than likely not for you

What's the rent for a one bedroom condo?
