New to biggerpockets

[Peter Jung]

Hello

My name is Peter from Edmonton AB in Canada

Here in Edmonton, it is snowing hard and weather is just getting colder day by day.

I am a recent graduate from University of Alberta and currently working as a full time pharmacist. It pays my bill but I feel very insecure about my future and I would like to retire as soon as possible so I can spend more time with my family and friends.

My goal is to gain financial freedom through real estate investment but it seems like the numbers don't look so promising up in north here in Canada.

So I was doing some research and it seems like there are more opportunities down in States.

I have gone through many blog posts and podcasts and realized it is time for me to now establish good relationship with fellow biggerpockers in this website.

I am looking to invest wherever positive cashflow can be generated.

Atlanta, Kensas city, Texas, Indianapolis seems like the area of my interests.

To my knowledge, I think I would have to get connections with attorneys and accountants that are professionals in cross border laws.

Obviously, I am going to be in need of good property management team as well as good realtors who can be my eyes and ears in the future when I start investing.

Also, getting mortage approved as a Canadian investor is hard so I need to pick your brain in terms of how I can borrow money for my future properties

If you guys could provide me some good detailed information about what I am looking for that will be very much helpful

Thank you!

Peter you might check on banks that operate in Canada that have branches in certain states here.

TD bank and RBC are two of them.
