Even then I recommend buying in state or bordering state that is within 2 hours away (so you could drive there if you had to)  I have a portfolio of rentals in Dayton OH and have had mixed results. 

However, each person's situation is different so best to consult with an experienced cross border tax and/or legal specialist.  

the main difference is hiring a contractor from afar can be something that is very hard to do bordering on a nightmare scenario...

It’s a diverse community, one of the most racially diverse neighborhoods of Detroit, that borders Grosse Pointe.This is one of the few historic neighborhoods left in the city where you can still buy properties for rent and make a solid return.

I'm looking for the best rental markets (i.e. strong middle class, good commute locations, B sections that border A neighborhoods; up and coming areas).FinancingI'm a strong buyer and am under-writer prequaled up to 800K.

In the upcoming months I am thinking about flying down to U.S from Canada to purchase a few properties. I have heard there is nothing stopping me except I cant stay longer then 6 months down there without citzenship.

And if your one of those that lives in or near the Oregon Border you simply drive over to Oregon and all your shopping and pay no SALES tax...

Also property taxes are very very low compared to north of the border so people hold on to their homes. 

Of course we will consult with attorneys and cross border accountants before we set anything up, but I am looking to get the basic concepts here.- How can my parents invest in US Real Estate?
