HOW TO BUY U. S. REAL ESTATE WITH THE PERSONAL PROPERTY PURCHASE SYSTEM
If you are thinking about buying real estate in the United States,
either as a vacation property or an investment opportunity, this book
provides you with comprehensive yet easy-to-understand information.
Kimberley Marr, a Canadian real estate broker, has teamed up with a
group of cross-border legal and tax professionals, mortgage
specialists and U. S. real estate brokers each with years of
experience. The Personal Property Purchase System outlines processes
and considerations when purchasing property in the United States.
U. S. destinations, especially in the Sunbelt, are popular choices
for Canadians who are looking for a vacation/second property or
investment opportunity. Statistics show that Canadians have been among
the largest foreign groups of buyers of U. S. real estate. Price,
accessibility, strength of the Canadian currency and similarities in
culture are the primary reasons. But, you must keep in mind that the
U. S. is a different country, with different laws. You need to be
aware of these laws and comply with them.
How to Buy U. S. Real Estate highlights important considerations in
deciding what you want in a U. S. property, in what location and at
what price. You will learn about Canadian and U. S. mortgages, titling
options, foreclosures and short-sale property, medical and other
insurance needs, currency issues, and much more.
