Best Place to Buy Foreign Property?

[Justin Black]

Hi everyone,

I currently live in the Middle East. I am teaching there overseas, but i'm originally from Canada. I am thinking about buying a rental property and I am looking for advice. I have done some research and have heard good things about Panama and Dominican Republic. They are quite far away so I probably wouldn't be able to visit there. Has anyone bought property without seeing it in person? What is that process like? I have about 95K USD. I want to keep around half of that in my ETF and emergency fund, but i'm flexible.
