It was listed at 88k and I knew it would go into a bidding war.It's a 4 bed, 2 bath on a huge plot of land, right on the border, next to the very, very expensive area.Now to the part about getting lucky.

Hi there everyone, i am Toronto Ontario, very new to this great and amazing web site BP just wondering if someone knows a lawyer and an accountant in BP community or other web site who is experience in cross border accounting, taxation and setting up entities for Canadian to buy US properties. 

I would like to expand my borders a bit, perhaps to Whidbey Island, Mount Vernon,  or even Bellingham.  

There are law firms that specialize in cross border legal and tax matters. 

Here's a quick run down...My father purchased a ranch property back in the last boom.Purchased for about 1.5 Million.It's a horse property and one of the borders had an issue with us and to get back at us sent out Building and Safety.We come to find out that the property was purchased with the idea that all 2000 + Sq ft of residence was legal, we come to find out only 900 + Sq ft is legal, not even the pool is legal.They want us to bring everything up to code and draw up new plans reflecting such.Our realtor says we have a great case and can sue the previous owner, what can happen in this case has anyone ever experienced something like this?

The 4th Ave location is labeled business 8 and has many smaller shopping centers and local restaurants that make it a better selection for air bnb than most of the rest of yuma west of 4th ave which is primarily family neighborhoods without any real attractions for visitors to enjoy.Also, the main street location would be the closest to the Quechan Casino on the Arizona and California border. 

Best to consult an accountant with cross border real estate and business expertise to get a full understanding of how you should hold (own) any Canadian properties to best fit your situation and mitigate tax liabilities.DispositionAs a non-resident, when you sell a property, you must notify the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA) pretty much immediately (something like 7-10 days if memory serves) to obtain a certificate of compliance.  

I'm familiar with the good and bad areas of Detroit, but I will focus more of my attention in the bordering suburbs.  

The same goes for Warren, but the city is very large and does border Detroit.

The house located in nice South East Whittier, CA area bordering Fullerton / La Mirada / La Habra.
