My initial hope was to invest in Canada to avoid complicated tax scenarios, but I know members of the BP community have had good success with cross border investing as long as it's structured correctly.I'm looking to work at least 1 more year overseas, but I'd like to start transitioning into investing over the next 12 months if possible to do so from abroad.I'm really excited to enter into this exciting industry, and hopefully work with some of the great real estate minds here on BP!

Yea zillow displays reviews and past sales.

Density (unit count) is generally displayed on a per square foot or per acre ratio.

We also did some white 4 x 4 tile borders when we made the vanity smaller.

It does not work at all for finding motivated sellers (via display ads).Check out what our guy in Las Vegas is doing on his Facebook page - THAT is working.  

I went through this dance with my cross-border accountant and he insisted that a flow-through limited partnership was the way to go so that is what I am currently using.

The top 3 marketing methods that work in most markets are:1) Google AdWords (paid search, NOT any type of display including Facebook display ads)2) Direct Mail (especially to absentees with more than 40% equity)3) Outdoor (billboards and other types of signs or outdoor displays)
