Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES In determining quarterly provisions for income taxes, Kennedy Wilson uses an effective tax rate based on actual year-to-date income and statutory tax rates. The effective tax rate also reflects Kennedy Wilson's assessment of its potential exposure for uncertain tax positions. The fluctuations between periods in the Company's effective tax rate are mainly due to varying levels of income and amounts attributable to foreign sourced income and noncontrolling interests. Permanent differences that impact the Company's effective rate as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 34% were not materially different in amount for all periods. The difference between the U.S. federal rate of 34% and the Company's effective rate is attributable to the taxation of foreign sourced income being taxed at rates lower than the U.S. domestic rate and income attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company's subsidiaries in Ireland and the United Kingdom are subject to corporate tax rates of 12.5% and 21.0%, respectively.

In determining quarterly provisions for income taxes, Kennedy Wilson uses an effective tax rate based on actual year-to-date income and statutory tax rates. The effective tax rate also reflects Kennedy Wilson's assessment of its potential exposure for uncertain tax positions.

The fluctuations between periods in the Company's effective tax rate are mainly due to varying levels of income and amounts attributable to foreign sourced income and noncontrolling interests. Permanent differences that impact the Company's effective rate as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 34% were not materially different in amount for all periods. The difference between the U.S. federal rate of 34% and the Company's effective rate is attributable to the taxation of foreign sourced income being taxed at rates lower than the U.S. domestic rate and income attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company's subsidiaries in Ireland and the United Kingdom are subject to corporate tax rates of 12.5% and 21.0%, respectively.
