In every country there are up and down markets… in every state … every city …. even in neighbourhoods.I have had a lot of advice that says "get down to neighbourhood level"… and make your assessments from that.There is so much info online, it isn't hard.Start with something general like demographics that you want to rent to, and work…[Read more]

When I was starting with my investment in the US, I just used an online service for starting the company. I have used incparadise.net and got the LLC in nevada in 2 days for about $300. There are more services like that in the US, so you might find another sites as well, but that's basically all you need. I don't think you have to…[Read more]

Sorry guys, been offline for a while and so didn't get the requests. My understanding is that an LLC submits a tax return but IS NOT TAXED… much like partnerships in Australia. The tax would be paid here in Australia, under the taxation law for the entity.For those who were asking about a US based attorney, I decided to post it here…Cammie…[Read more]
Another option would be to seek out a syndicate investing in larger properties (ie apartments, commercial, etc) and partner with them. Apartment deals in the USA are particularly cashflow positive just now. Send me a private message if you are interested in more information.Martha

Can I suggest, with relation to your own wealth strategy, that you get advice and a sounding board from someone who is not going to benefit financially from your decisions?It is actually not too difficult to try to do yourself… in fact a standard business consultant/planning advisor, or even someone like PWC or a lawyer might be a good idea.If…[Read more]
Hey ClappyCan I *clappy* my hands at you, for starting at your age?? I am so impressed.The comments Michelle had above are really worth considering. If you go back a few squares, and work out what you actually want, in really specific language, the "how" seems to fall into place much easier.Just to feed your imagination… there are opportunities…[Read more]

We… want to start an LLC in the USA and then open a bank account in the USA in the LLC's name to then buy property. Our question is should we then open a bank account in Australia under our individual names or form a company here and then open a bank account in that company's name in Australia? The reason I'm asking…[Read more]
I really think you would be better speaking with US corporate Attorney firm about it. Essentially no difference between Wyoming and Nevada, except for filing fees and charging orders against a corporation (to do with when you are sued, how people can access compensation if the case is found against you).The following notes (in blue) are from an…[Read more]
I agree with you all. Yes the USA is a different market. Yes lots of people say "oooooh, risky". I think … GOOD! you keep thinking that, and it leaves all the more opportunity for me.Due diligence is the be all and end all. As mentioned, properties do need to be viewed, but not necessarily by me. If I have a property manager, building inspector,…[Read more]
You can't lose anything by looking . Vegas is not the strongest market at the moment, high unemployment and so on, but I do know of Americans investing there successfully.The biggest thing is to look at each deal individually. Seeing as you will be in Vegas anyway, why not check it out.Martha
