I just need a Canadian business to invest in America?

Which in turn will bring plenty of other investors and general business to the area.

I had breakfast with another property manager, and we got to talking about the business. 

Wondering if anyone has invested in a new development like that as I've only had experience with existing structure purchases, BRRRR and STR of SFR. 

It will be more of a purchase from my business to myself. 

Which will bring plenty of other investors and general business to the area.

Hello BiggerPockets community,A business partner of mine and I are looking into rental arbitrage/ Sub Leasing.

Because of this difference, the approach the the business plan, financing, and other aspects of ownership are completely different.IMO, every commercial property should cashflow. 

I wouldn't even bother asking for comps or how much they think the repairs are, it doesn't matter what a wholesaler comes up with, a real buyer will know how to assess on their own how much the repairs will be and thus how much they can pay for the house depending on their business plan (either to fix up and rent out, or fix up and flip/sell).
