Hi Michael,

I would like to wish you the best in your trip to the US. You are right that the US market is ripe for the picking now that the prices are mostly bottoming out everywhere in the US. Even with the prices going down, demand for properties for rent should remain strong.

Just remember to make sure you get a good property manager without overpaying for him or her. Also, get a good lawyer that will handle all the paper work while you are there. There are some lawyers there that are just out to get you money.

Also, have you thought about buying property in upstate New York? The place is relatively doing well in terms of employment and homes are almost all in good neighborhoods with below market value prices.
