Expat Investing from Abroad

[Account Closed]

Hello All,

I am a US expat living abroad (and plan on staying abroad) and I am fairly new to BiggerPockets. I only recently became involved with real estate after taking a fascinating course on personal finance. 

I have managed to save a substantial amount of money and am going to purchase my first property this year. The biggest hurdle that I am facing (and I yet to find much information on the web about) is how to overcome the hurdles of investing and managing a property from abroad. This includes but is not limited to: taxes, money transfers, property management, finding the right investment from afar, etc.

I would love to hear your thoughts on how one can achieve financial freedom while living thousands of miles away from the United States.

Thanks in advance!
