Key Takeaways:
"My basic philosophy is, your structure should only be as complicated as is necessary." - Michael Matthew
"Areas of concern are, as much as we have in common with our American friends, it is an actual different country and there is going to be more paperwork involved. There's just no other way to say it. And it is at times extremely complicated. So you're going to need some help with it." - Michael Matthew
"And then the other issue is the fact that you can be dealing in US funds all the time. And it's one thing if you're moving perhaps five or $10,000 in earnest money than when you're moving tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars." - Michael Matthew
"It's at your option. All this [set up] can be done remotely. All of this can be done in person. I won't kid you and say it's not gonna take a bit longer if it's done remotely. That's just the nature of it." - Michael Matthew
