How to set up a US mailing address

This is easy!  I feel it is also essential regardless of if you are buying on your own or through a buyer’s agent.

A physical mail address is good for a number of reasons;

• You actually get a physical US address
• You require this physical address in order to apply for a US bank account (next help article)
• You can get your bank documents/cards/cheque books & company documents mailed to you
• Depending on the service offered, your mail can be scanned and emailed to you
• Depending on the service offered, you can elect to have the mail forwarded to you in another country
• It is quite cheap, I’ve found good offerings for around $29/month

Your address can be set up quite easily online.   A simple search for “US physical mail address” will yield you literally hundreds of different companies that offer a mail address, mail forwarding service or a combination of both.  Check out a few that I found after a quick search on Google…
