I would ask any friends and family who are in the trades for referrals. 

As a landlord, it may be difficult to make decisions like this especially when a family is involved. 

This has definitely influenced my partner’s and I decision. 

(Live there for a bit then rent it out)It's a tough decision nowadays with a 3% mortgage which is pretty much an asset in itself. 

I noticed these deals move so fast its hard to do these calcs quickly to make a decision.

Understanding the market trends, neighborhoods, and property values will greatly benefit you in making informed decisions.

@Juan Carlos Gastelum As the world's greatest investors have taught us, making long-term investment decisions only based on tax policies isn't a good idea but it sounds like that's not you're only reason for investing in the US. 

(Brass, brushed nickel, etc).Love to hear how others are making these decisions.

Most investor deals are traded off-market, and the brokers/investors/agents that gatekeep them typically will trade with only their circle as it's a form of doing repeat business with the folks they already know and trust.
