And, do those provide a higher overall return than real estate rentals? 

Hi There, Many of my clients are foreigners (not Canadians but Europeans) who buy long-term rental in the states, I've been doing it for more than 20 years and specialized lenders for this scenario change every few years.Would you be comfortable sharing the terms you've been getting from those two companies?

It's likely that way for a reason :) @Nicholas L. provides some good insights and a great post on that topic specifically.

As a Certified Financial Planner specializing in real estate investments, I'm excited to offer some insights into your retirement planning question.

On the other hand, investing outside of your state may provide you access to markets or possibilities that might be more advantageous.

The issue is due to the floorplan, I am having issues having an idea on how to reorganize the kitchen.Does anyone know or recommend an interior renovation design that could provide a design idea?

Please feel free provide your thoughts and advise.Thanks in Advance!

I don't think it will provide any safeguards for damage or liability etc.  

More specifically if you own multiple investment properties and they show up on your Schedule E do you need to provide detailed information on each of the properties/including lease agreements etc?
