Hola everyone, For those in Canada 🇨🇦 : We live in Vancouver, but we are interested in purchasing a property in either Alberta or Windsor.

It's going to depend on where you are purchasing.

To navigate these complexities and ensure you’re optimizing your tax strategy, it would be wise to consult a tax professional who specializes in international taxation and U.S. real estate.

I used a heloc to purchase one of our properties.

I'm purchasing a home in a suburb of Cleveland with Hard Money. 

And then there’s the real estate which you could purchase or lease to save in cash. 

I don't have personal experience with this kind of land trust but since you're in CO I have a personal recommendation of a real estate attorney here in CO who has helped me with seller finance deals and is very responsive and has been great to work with in general - Jeromy Geraghty - https://www.geraghtylawoffice.com/

I have also purchased training from Attorneys and CPA focused on real estate.I also learned that Renatus is more like multi level marketing where you are then asked to sell this education to other people to recover your cost.

Insurance is the most important thing as he said.I wouldn't make any decisions on this until I got with a solid real estate INVESTOR CPA.

All of our purchases have been pocket listings and typically value add is the only way we have been able to see good CAPs and COC returns.
