First deal in the bag, 135 units in Phoenix Arizona🌵

After 12 months of hard work, we have just landed our first135 units in Phoenix Arizona🌵

I am happy to answer any questions from newbies or seasoned investors about our process of vetting deals in the current market conditions, how a bunch of Aussies have built an apartment portfolio in the US or any general questions about the apartment investment space.

Cheers!

Quote from @Tom Nguyen:

Please share how you did it? How easy for Foreigners to buy US assets and is it under company or personal name? 

Tom,

I went against the grain in what is preached of buying your way up from a duplex and rolling into larger deals. I skipped this route and chased investors doing the 100 unit deals. I offered my assistance and worked on the side for free, for years. This route took longer for sure, but what I did get was a large investor network, a lot of great knowledge, and an understanding of how hard you really need to work to get to the larger apartment space. 

Offer your services, get to know a lot of people and just keep hanging around the hoop.

To answer your question - it is not easy but can be done.
