We are even considering Edmonton or Calgary but that idea might too much of a stretch.

Cheers from Ellen in Edmonton.  

Its nearly doubled in price (paid 150k) and gives me about $700/mo cashflow as I’ve just upped the rent $250/mo to $1650 now.I’m currently in the middle of flipping a property in Edmonton as the money in the deal.

Hi Elias, I am from Edmonton, AB.

I'll be visiting Edmonton tomorrow (Tuesday 4th) through Friday.

I have met up with various accounting firms (which are not specifically cross boarder specialist since it seems to me its hard to find them in Edmonton, AB, and I assume they are going to charge me tremendous amount of money for consultation and filings) when I talked to the partners at these firms, they all gave me different opinions.

I found the following info . . . see if they know any more:Municipal Affairs and Housing Authority* 4th Floor Standard Life Centre: 10405 Jasper Avenue, Edmonton, (780) 422 0122

JeffJeff,Most U.S.A investors would find real estate prices in Canada to run a little higher than at home - especially in Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary/Edmonton.

Their services are along the lines of:*  a CAD100/month online affiliate subscription with full access audio recordings and all tools and discussion boards*  a CAD200/month main membership with full access to 12 monthly meetings per year in any of Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver and occasionally Ottawa and Kelowna. 

Investing outside of your local area is fine, me and my partners own in Edmonton, Hamilton, Waterloo, etc.
