Texas (Dallas/Austin) Professional Teams for RE Investment

[C. Wei]

Hi BP investors, 

I am a foreign investor (Canadian) looking to invest specifically in Texas, likely starting from Dallas given my partners are more familiar in the area. We're looking to buy-rent-hold the property as long term investment, but of course are open to thoughts to invest the region.  

As a first-time US RE investor, I am looking to build a professional team/network in the region, specifically Dallas/Austin. Could someone kindly introduce any great professionals that you've personally worked with for my partners and I to have a chat with? Specifically: 

a. Accountant - ie. regarding LLC structure, tax flow through rate, non resident withholdings, potential tax savings structures, capital gains...etc. hopefully with experience planning for cross border tax

b. Property management cos - ie. interested in rental info, vacancy rates of various counties etc. 

c. Realtors - ie. hopefully specializing in investment properties

d. Mortgage advisors/private lenders - ie. specifically partial partners as foreign investors..

I'm sure we'll hop on back with a ton more questions, but many thanks ahead of time for your comments and kind referrals!

Cheers, 

Claire

Hi @C. Wei, I am a foreign investor and my focus is in Texas too. I mainly invest in Tax Sales. 

I can recommend you @Bruce Lynn, he is a very knowledgeable Broker in the Dallas area (he is also a very experienced RE investor). 

If you want to learn more about the area that I invest in (tax sales) feel free to ask me anything you would like to know. Also, follow @Arnie Abramson he is "the guy" in that field.

Good luck with your investments.
