My Canadian corporation has an EIN number.

@John HyreIt cost me $100 to register my corporation in OH and get a license to do business there as a foreign corporation.

I sell myself as a small mom and pop landlord who can take care of the tenant because I am not some big corporately managed entity. 

I've seen so many of my friends start their corporate jobs making huge incomes, living in expensive apartments, spending all their money on avocado toast, hating their lives, and not actually saving much money year on year, which I've just never been able to rationalize.

I live in northern Canada (so I understand there are legal differences from our neighbours to the south) and would like to start a real estate investing corporation with a few coworkers.We would be a group of about 5-7 individuals investing in Canada with options to spread into the States if things go well.What I would like advice on is what kind of verbiage to include in our contractual agreement (bylaws, unanimous shareholder agreement, etc.).

He mentioned that it was more difficult to pierce the corporate veil in Nevada in comparison to other states.

There's also corporate development taking place that would increase housing demand.I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

You have interesting goals - in a way similar to what I do currently (manage our SFR portfolio, rehab new acquisitions, GC for clients, build new for retail and working as an agent) - what I am finding is that I have too much going on and need to focus.After working in corporate for almost 20 years I am enjoying the freedom to start whatever project I find interesting if it makes sense and money.

Currently I'm working for a crowdfunder in underwriting.I'm also in the process of selling my first rental in OC, I'll post details about that elsewhere.I joined BiggerPockets to learn more about investing personally as opposed to on a corporate level.

As for Baltimore,  it does get a bad rap, it's not much like the way it's portrayed,  but our location is a gateway to the Chesapeake Bay, and I'm really thinking of targeting my local and regional market as a venue for weddings,  corporate retreats,  and family functions.As for becoming profitable,  that's the question,  but even if it's a buy and hold, I'd rather just make one lump sum payment after tax season than rustle up a few thousand dollars every month.
