Canadian here, looking to invest in the US - so opposite of what you're trying to do!

I'm a Canadian investor interested in investing in US real estate.

Getting back to the topic of this thread: even in the last downturn (which was a doozy); the great Global Financial Crisis 2008-2010, second only to the Great Depression 1929, plenty of properties in my market including some of mine did not lose value and some still appreciated.

Can Canadian move funds to US (let’s say $50k) without any issues?

Or what it would cost you to rent a house, you have to live somewhere, and in your overall global financial porftolio it matters.

The owner I remember though was Canadian.

The book is called "Secrets of The Canadian Real Estate Cycle" by Don R.

Check out Scotiabankcr.com, its a Canadian bank I normally use when I go to Costa Rica once a year. they might have mortgage loans for Americans.

Bare in mind, residential rates are going to be superior (looks like around 3.25% today for an investment property depending on the bank you use) vs the 5-6% range you'll obtain through a commercial loan, but there are benefits to both (residential will also look at your personal income, tax returns likely, pay stubs etc and review your global DTI  VS Commercial lender won't care about your personal income, and will be more so lookign to the income of the property, your liquidity, credit still for leverage and rate approvals etc.)

You can also call Global Integrity Finance, their a Hard Money Lender so rates are like 5% but they can pretty much do anything
