Want to start but! Advice and ideas appreciated

[Simon Kearns]

So....

I really want to get into real estate with the goal of being able to choose to work than having to work in the future.

I have a reasonable amount of money saved for a deposit and potentially a lot more via parents etc.

I want to get into the buy and hold to get rental income to then grow to feed my next purchase and so on.

All fairly simple so far.

I live in Qatar for work and i want to invest in either New Zealand or UK, but preferably NZ.

Here is my sticking point. I simply don't know how to do it being that i live in a different country. I would love to hear ideas of how i can make this work as i know there is a way, i just dont know it yet.

Thanks in advance

Simon
