Curious about U.S. rentals, but not sure where to start?
Most Canadians stop at the same wall of questions. Am I even allowed to buy there? How do taxes work across two countries? Who looks after the property when I am a long way away?
The answers exist, but they are scattered across podcasts, forums and advice written for Americans. The Starter Kit puts the Canadian-specific setup in one place and in a sensible order, so you know what to tackle first.
What is inside the kit
- The five-part cross-border setup checklist: identity, ownership, taxes, banking and team
- The rent-to-price quick screen, so you can see why most Canadian rentals struggle to cash flow
- A market scorecard you can use on any U.S. city
- The A to D neighbourhood grades, and how to check a street from Canada
- A pre-offer readiness check, so you know when you are actually ready to buy
