I'm based in Canada and I'm currently looking into wholesaling US real estate. I'm hoping to connect with other Canadians who are actively doing deals south of the border to share experiences and network.
My biggest concern right now is navigating the cross-border tax and corporate structuring. I want to make sure I set my entity up correctly from day one to avoid double taxation between the IRS and the CRA.

"Hi Amir! Dealing with IRS and CRA cross-border double taxation is definitely one of the biggest hurdles for Canadian investors. Many look into specialized corporate structures or tax treaties to mitigate it. Interestingly, operating from international hubs like Dubai, UAE—where individual income tax is 0% and real estate rental yields are robust (often averaging 6-8%+)—makes you realize the immense value of strategic global asset structuring. Have you considered consulting a cross-border CPA who specifically deals with US-Canada tax treaties to set up a pass-through entity? Best of luck with your wholesaling journey!"
