I am curious to know how many investors on here have invested in a foreign country.

I am fairly confident his 'client' is like his brother or something and they know I'm a foreigner who isn't in the US that I might be naive enough to take their offer.

There are numerous foreigners, but they all seem to be from China, Hong Kong and Thailand.  

@Gui Qiu,  You will definitely need an experienced professional to set this up.1) Property owned via foreign Corp : 2) Property owned via foreign Corp via US corp: Both of this will avoid estate and gift tax. 

Hi,As I understand, the inheritance tax that a foreigner has to pay to inherit a property from another foreigner is 40% from the excess in the market value of $60k of the inherited rental property located in the US.To mitigate this low exemption compared to US citizens, I am thinking of establishing a general partnership.

Does anyone see advantage to maybe just doing a Single LLC in one state (with one of the rentals being listed as a Foreign-entity)? 

I’ve been trying to investigate this, and by no means an expert, found this info online, http://www.escapeartist.com/realestate/investments/1031-exchange-foreign-real-estate-tax-considerations/According to this article:“A like-kind property is any property held for business or investment.

I have a foreign rental property that's been in service since 2011.

I have a foreign rental property that's been in service since 2013.

No holding back investors at the moment though, seems they are coming from everywhere ie out of state, foreign investors
