Investing from abroad
Hey everyone! I am a new BP member and also new to real estate investing. I am 26 years old and live abroad 6 months out of the year. I was wondering if there were any other BP members that invest while abroad that could give this newbie some advice! I just finished reading David's book on long-distance investing and I am super eager to begin (I honestly don't want to wait until I get back stateside). I have a about $40,000 saved and I am hoping to use the BRRRR method! Any thoughts or suggestions are much appreciated!

Hi @Kaitlin Ray and @Martin Taylor, this is my wheelhouse! While my husband and I were stationed overseas we were going through the same predicament. We wanted to invest in real estate in the US, but couldn't find a lot of options. I was able to do this, but it was a rough road to do on my own. As a result, I wanted to make this process easier for other people who were in my situation, so I started Afield. We deal with folks like you looking to invest in real estate in the US while abroad. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to help you both!
Best of luck!
