Canadian Investor Looking to Expand to the US

Elliot Mould
Posted

Good day everyone,

My name is Elliot and my wife and I are interesting in expanding our real estate investing to the US. We are from Ottawa Ontario Canada, and own 10 multi unit investment properties in the city and surrounding secondary markets. I recently attended a mastermind in Florida for canadians that want to invest in US real estate and we are excited to get started. I just registered my corporation and LP in the state of Florida. We hope to purchase a second home in Florida that we can rent out as STR while not there as well as some other investing in the state.

Our reason for joining bigger pockets is because the other part of our desire for US investing is to be able to own in LANDLORD FRIENDLY (both for tenancy rules and affordability) states.  We have some states in mind I am looking to connect with service providers in those areas that we can work with, and hopefully decide which location we would like to get started in.  I am hoping that realtors/property managers can essentially sell us on an area by explaining the pros and cons, as well as what they can offer us in terms of services.  The states we have considered so far are OHIO, INDIANA, TEXAS, FLORIDA, MISSOURI, ALABAMA, KENTUCKY, but are open to more, and are open to taking some off the list.  

If you are in these areas and are well connected to a solid core team, and are open to helping us with wholesale/private opportunities, please feel free to reach out.  We would love to hear from you.

Regards,

Elliot

Hey there, and welcome to the BP forums!

I would definitely recommend Ohio! Especially with some big corporations coming here. Like Patrick said, Columbus is a good hybrid market of appreciation and cashflow and there's room for it to grow!
