That's one issue.Check with your business attorney to see if a "foreign" entity needs to be registered to do business in NC.

Hi,We are foreigners not living in the US who are interested in buying a condo in Michigan, as we have ties in this country (lived here many years) and visit most summers for 1-2 months.

And as a non-resident foreign national I don't believe you could claim this anyway ( good accountant who works specifically with foreign nationals will be your best friend right now).  

You register the LLC as a "foreign LLC" in the other state (Ohio, NC) and then you can buy, sell and conduct any other business there.

That would require having a US tax number...an ITIN if the individial is a foreigner according to the IRS.  

I should also mention this is my first investment property so the offer process is pretty foreign to me. 

Foreign investors also has something to do with it.

:@David Dachtera"The US is a laughing stock of the world."1) That is nothing more than the propaganda the Democrats wanted everyone to believe to dissuade folks from voting for Trump - an utterly failed attempt to intimidate those who might have been inclined to vote Trump, but it simply didn't work Full Stop.2) I've been all over the world many many times and I can assure you that no one is laughing, In fact, most foreign leaders went out of their way very quickly to congratulate Trump, and copiously so (including the Presidents of Mexico and China - the two countries with the most reason to potentially despise him).

bout fell out of my chair.. just a very foreign concept to me.Granted we build 5 THOUSAND new apartment doors a year here in PDX market and that's were all our renters go.Also I was commenting on another post about how new construction basically stopped in your area and that was correct.. takes a while to get it up and running . we were comparing Memphis to Vegasand PHX  well a huge portion of the renters in Vegas and PHX were sub trade contractors and when new construction like everywhere else came to a stop.. landlords found themselves with huge vacancys  apartments were lost.. 4 plexs completely vacant for a few years.my point was Memphis is a rental town has been will always be and is not subject to the whims on new construction and those that work in those trades.. your not going to have a ton of new construction when you can still buy existing homes for less than replacement costs..

I am looking for advise from people who have experience working with foreign investors, that can help me with: taxation issues, financing, what areas within the US to invest in etc..I have $100k US to invest and am open to looking at SF and small MF homes.Thanks for your time,Regards,Amin
