QUESTION:
Hi there,
I am working in the US as a RN with a TN visa. I am thinking of getting a green card so that I can invest in Real Estate down here. If later on down the road I go back to Canada to live after receiving a Green Card and it subsequently expires, does that disqualify me in the future from getting another TN visa to come back here to work as a nurse again?

It is a touchy situation to go from a TN visa to a resident alien or green card.  You should go through an H1-A visa first in my opinion.
If you do get it, take out your US citizenship, then you can always return to the USA at will.
However, if for some reason or other, you do allow the Green card to expire or have it taken away because you are not living in the USA, you would still be eligible for a TN or H1-A in the future if the rules remain the same.
You are free to buy property in the US with or without a green card or any other visa.  There is a question about whether you can live in it without a visa but a TN or an H1 or an L1 or an O1 or a P1 all allow you to live in your own property in the US and you can always buy a seasonal home in the US with no paper visa, just a paperless B1 / B2 status.
