When investing in Canadian real estate, most investors rely on appreciation. But in the U.S., the balance shifts.
The Case for Cash Flow
Markets like Cleveland, Indianapolis, and Kansas City offer strong cash flow opportunities with lower entry prices. Monthly income can provide stability and reduce reliance on speculation.
The Case for Appreciation
High-growth markets such as Austin, Phoenix, and parts of Florida can deliver strong appreciation, especially in booming job markets. But they often come at the cost of weaker cash flow.
Blending the Two
The smartest Canadian investors in the U.S. diversify by blending cash flow markets with appreciation markets. This hybrid approach provides stability today and growth tomorrow.
Remember: cash flow keeps you in the game, appreciation gets you ahead. The U.S. offers both—if you choose wisely.
