    USA investment properties for an Aussie

    i only have about 20k in cash and wanted to get at least 2 properties around 40-50k. Dont have much in my super and to get it out and turn it into a smsf would cost more than its worth. So would want to borrow around 60-80k. I wish I had $100k just laying around in a reserve!

    USA investment properties for an Aussie

    Thanks Karina that is how I was thinking which is why I thought it would be hard to find funding there. Also thanks for the info on the Atlanta property, just goes to show and which is why I'm finding it hard to trust anyone but don't want to do it completely on my own. This is what I'm...

    USA investment properties for an Aussie

    Thanks for the ATO link. Funny how they don't give definates. You may be able to offset.... Of course you should be able to the greedy *****. IF you set up a LLC before you buy a house and travel over there can you claim travel expenses for looking? Or is that not really possible because you...

    If they are a safe bet how come they haven't built anymore? Wouldn't that suggest that there isn't much demand for them or are they that good that they have lasted and they don't need anymore? So do you also to SF?

    USA investment properties for an Aussie

    So now I have found some people/companies that sell properties. Most charge around $4000 fee for "finding" the property but they also help you with the setup of everything. I would prefer to get lending in the USA in case the dollar drops but only the first company offered non recourse balloon...

    Sorry this may be a dumb question but I am bvery new to this, how do you register a lien, who do you need to contact? How do you find the section 8 tenants? Have you had many problems? Thanks Emma, what else do you think needs to be on the checklist that you need to do before/whilst...

    USA investment properties for an Aussie

    I like the way Emma dealt with her response and thought she was very professional about it, however I don't think Vegas is a place to invest either. Actually both companies I mentioned in post one both said to stay away from it. Here are just a few reasons why: 1. It is number 146/150 in the...
