We Built This Service Around Your Actual Problems
“You cannot walk the property yourself”
Every package includes full photo documentation, and your local contractor or inspector can walk it during the inspection period as your eyes.
“Remote closings feel risky”
They are routine: escrowed funds, licensed title company, remote online notarization where permitted. The same structural protections we explain to sellers protect you as the buyer.
“Local knowledge gap”
A price that looks like a steal from California can be retail for the block. Our packages state the neighborhood context plainly, and our guides teach you to verify it independently.
“Time zones and slow responses kill deals”
Deal alerts hit the list simultaneously; your criteria pre-qualify you. When you respond, the package answers the first twenty questions without a phone call.
Questions People In Your Situation Ask
Yes. Documents are signed with a mobile notary or remote online notarization (permitted in Ohio, Texas and Georgia for most transaction types), funds move by wire through the title company escrow, and recording is electronic.
Hire a local licensed inspector ($300 to $500) or have your contractor walk it during the inspection period. Video walkthroughs plus an inspection report replace your eyes reliably.
Entry prices that still allow cash flow, landlord-workable law, population and job growth in the metros, and enough inventory of distressed properties to source deals below market. The exact combination coastal markets lost years ago.
Yes, foreign buyers can own US real estate. You will need an ITIN for taxes and possibly an LLC; a US bank account simplifies everything. Get a cross-border tax advisor before the first purchase, structure matters.
Most out-of-state investors do, for liability separation. Ohio, Texas and Georgia all recognize single-member LLCs, and Texas has no state income tax on top. Ask your attorney, we can close in whatever entity you choose.
Local property managers run 8 to 12 percent of rent. Line one up before you close, not after, and ask them to review the deal first: a good PM saying they would happily manage that street is a real signal.
Exactly one way: wire to the licensed title company escrow account, with the wire details verified by phone using a number you found independently. Never wire to an individual or an account from an email.
Texas has no state income tax. Ohio and Georgia tax rental income sourced in-state, usually creditable against your home state. Federal rules apply to everyone. One session with a CPA covers your setup.
The same recourse locals have: the title insurance policy covers title defects, your inspection report covers condition disputes, and the contract governs the rest. Distance changes logistics, not rights.
Good deals go inside 72 hours, but never faster than the inspection period protects. Decide fast on pursuing; the contract still gives you the window to verify before money goes hard.
