I'm going to reiterate what's already been mentioned above, but I'm going to actually give you examples of why it's relevant to you to find a U.S. tax professional.1 - You're going to need to file U.S. taxes once you have property down here, there's federal filings, state filings, and sometimes local filings too2 - Tons of tax treaties between the U.S. and Canada that are easy to miss and can cost you a lot of money (important one with rentals - effectively connected income - if the professional you talk to doesn't know what this is, run away)3 - The amount of days you spend in the U.S. needs to be tracked and if you go over a threshold, all of your worldwide income could be taxable by the U.S.4 - Selling real property means up to 15% of your sales proceeds might not be available to you for years (FIRPTA)5 - Lots of nuance at the state and local levels, which both want to take as much money from you as possibleMain takeaway here is that you should find a U.S. based tax person.

For example do you have a great w2 and can you afford to cover costs of a major repair or 3 months of vacancy?

So for example, a 761 credit score will be in the 760-779 credit category, then going down to 740-759 and so on.2.

Also your perspective are you an agent, pm or investor.For example in Cleveland the east side has tons of A communities by income standards but the turn times of how long a property sits on the market is atrocious.

Hopefully, this is a useful example of what’s achievable with out-of-state investing, even with no local connections. 

This move is such a great example of what determination, solid planning, and truly listening to investors’ needs can achieve.

It’s not just about making the space look great—it’s about making it functional and thoughtful for how your guests will actually use it.For example, one of my properties is located near a nature park where my guests often go hiking, biking, canoeing, and sailing.

For example, are there specific documents or information I should prepare, or would identifying a target property first be more beneficial?

Example: You have a 3-Family Building that has 3bedrooms 1bathroom on each of the three floors - 9Bedrooms 3Bathrooms Three Living Rooms Three Kitchens.

For example, if you're planning a kitchen remodel, get multiple quotes to ensure you have a solid grasp of what it will actually cost.3.
