Welcome Brad. Wish I started as young as you.

@Sam Hadad

In response to the original post, I had a good experience with @Mark Updegraff this past weekend. Mark took the time to show us what's happening current and past developments around downtown Rochester and the 19th ward. He even did a walk through with us at a recent listing and provided a rough estimate for the rehab. He also showed us past purchases from him and his partners and a current property he's rehabbing. It was very educational. He's very passionate about Rochester and I recommend reaching out to him. 

Hi all. I'm looking to invest in western new York. I'm going to be in Buffalo either this Saturday or Sunday. love to meet up with an investor friendly agent/broker. Any referrals would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi I'm looking to invest in New York and I'm heading towards buffalo and rochester and would like to meet up with agents in those areas. I can meet this Friday/Saturday and possiblity Sunday. Looking forward to your responses.

Hi @Raju T. I am also just looking to invest in the US as well. Did you check with RBC and TD or BMO? 

Thanks @Larry Smet. I'm going to pm you. 

Hi currently in Brampton. Exploring the US as a possibility. Currently livng in duplex with 1 apartment rented and a second investment duplex aswell. 

Hi @Steve Haight. My goal is buy and hold. I'm looking for straight cash flow to replace mine and my wife's income. The reason I'm looking to the US is because deals are harder to find here in Canada, not impossible but definitely the longer road. I don't just want to take on properties due to the lower interest rate as we are getting here in ontario about 2percent variable. Things will change and if the fundamentals aren't there for me, I'm stuck with a dud, maybe paying out of my pocket. I've received some great advice so far. Again, because we Canadian investors have to be extra careful with our paperwork , I'm just being hesitant. 

Thanks

@Steven Hamilton II , that was a lot of good leads and information. I'm feeling motivated again. Very glad to have joined Bigger Pockets. I'm going to get back to this thread in a short bit and contact some of you. Cheers.

Hi Steve. Still figuring out Bigger Pockets here so apologies for the late reply. I currently own a duplex here in ontario which is brining in some cash flow, which is nice. I also have my basement apartment rented in my primary residence as well. I'm ready to expand now. What's stopping me from going all out is that as I do more research with folks here in canada, ie. accountant, real estate agent, etc.. All I'm hearing is how much paperwork is required to do as a foreign investor and so many rules and regulations need to be seriously considered as it differs from municipalities. Are you still investing in US as a Canadian or do you have citizenship? Am I just hearing people speaking from fear. Should I listen to them?
