Laws and practices change from one town to the next, across state lines, and across international borders.  

$150k for a unit worth $300k after rehab borders on robbery.  

With the new rules (as they are shaping up) it looks like the only reasonable options are corporations on both sides of the border (expensive to maintain, higher tax rates in US) or LPs (does not preserve liability protection for the general partner) so those are not attractive.Now, with the changing Canadian tax rules, had I known I would have just held the properties in our own names and bought more liability insurance.Caveats:1) I read on BP that it is much more expensive to maintain entities in California...or maybe it is not the entity but some sort of levy for those investing in rental properties.

I don't know how the cross-border details would work, plus with the CAD low right now, it might not be good.
