It's MUCH easier to do something about the appraisal BEFORE it's done than after.

I wanted somewhere close to Nor Cal but much more friendly tenant/landlord laws, 4th lowest property taxes in the Nation, rent growth, job growth, population growth, strong appreciation, limited land, close to Lake Tahoe, etc.

As a Canadian, I need the help of experts who can help me understand lending, legal, and tax strategies and implications.

@Tony HerlambangI recommend people talk with a lawyer to setup and LLC because it deals with liability rather than taxes. 

If the individual defaults, how will you go after their cosigner when they live in another country?

I had to give 30 days' notice per our management agreement to a client I have 13 units with on Friday after having to hang up the phone on him Thursday afternoon and telling him if he ever speaks to me that way, it will be our last conversation.

Exports download quickly and you can export MLS listing info (including agent contact info), tax info, foreclosure info, and mortgage info along with all the regular property info. -  They have a ton of preset lead types including Absentee Owners, Free & Clear, Vacants, etc and MLS and Pending.-  Lead stacking works well, and I like their Advanced Filters.

Yes, you get your rent from the government like clockwork, after you wait 30-60 days for them to set up your account, but what about the tenant's portion of rent?
