Before Arriving
|
Do not put money in the US before you arrive.
|
| Do not move money into America before arriving! We have discovered that it's a major hassle for you to wire money from your US bank to a title company when you are physically in Canada. This doesn't sound intuitive but trust us, leave your money at home. |

|
When You Arrive
|
Recommended Banks
|
| While you are in the states, this is the best time to set up a bank account. You will need 2 forms of ID and usually about $50 in cash to open an account. If you have an LLC or LLP already set up with a "registered agent", we recommend that you use that address. |
|
|
During Escrow
|
Get Electronic Funds Established
|
|
You will wire funds from your Canadian bank directly to the title company for your earnest money deposit and the balance of funds when you close.
We do recommend that you set up an account with Intuit to enable you to send and receive money electronically.
|
 |
| IMPORTANT: Intuit requires an address in America to establish an account. You may use our address if necessary: 5841 E Charleston 452, Las Vegas, NV 89142 |
|
|
After Escrow
|
|
| If you are using one of our recommended professionals to manage your LLC here in the states, money will be sent to you via Intuit. |
Warning: We do not accept or transmit funds through the US mail. Mail takes anywhere from 2 - 3 weeks to deliver and sometimes goes missing entirely.
