@Gino Barbaro- Great advice, accounting is definitely a foreign language that should be learned if you want to be successful in large scale business. 

Some had to live in a certain area, some couldn't live in certain areas, some had to have a security person come approve the location or building or features.If your realtor association has an international section, you might go to those meetings to see if they have any insights.https://www.nvar.com/realtors/laws-ethics/legal-blog/a-landl...Might check out this website for DC area.https://www.internations.org/washington-dc-expatsYou might also see if there is some kind of welcoming group for new foreign diplomats and see if you can get in on that meetup or become a sponsor. 

Prop 13 is a very foreign concept to many folks.

Put on top restrictions on foreign worker visas, fewer international students coming to the US, you can start to see a new trend emerge.

Their cost of living keeps going up as the prices of everything keeps going down but the value of their real estate keeps going up because “quality” real estate in places foreigners are buying is traded in dollars.

Ironically a 3-4 year old, second hand truck would be about double ... forthcoming harmonization of vehicle sat standards are suppose to permit us (in Canada) to import newer foreign vehicles.We could have probably made due with a smaller VW Transporter or small Merc 200 class Sprinter, but we could not find one with a 3-way dump (which has turned out to be my favourite feature).We have already had offers to purchase the truck (for more than our costs) ... so, as soon as we find a newer one with *all* the features we want ....

Hi JeannieRegarding the recommendations you asked for: I am an foreign investor (South Africa) making use of Midsouth Homebuyers.

When they realize how cheap nice properties close to the beach are compared to the US and how quickly they can get their investment back by renting short term in a hot market, many decide to buy instead of renting.Also, in the past, the main buyers and renters of beach properties in Mexico were foreigners (mostly Americans).

Form in Illinois and Wisconsin will treat you as a foreign entity and charge you a second time and you will need two state income tax returns.
