New member from Guatemala

[Geraldine Veiman]

Hi! I am currently living in Guatemala; although I am an american citizen, I have only lived a year of my life in the US. I want to learn about Real Estate investing, looking into a future source of income in face  of the possibility of going back to live in the US with my family. I am a housewife, although I graduated as a medical doctor, but neither my husband (also a doctor, guatemalan) or myself could start working in the US right away. 

One of the first things that come to mind is my need for building credit in the US, as a means of qualifying for a loan. I don´t know if our international credit card counts for some record in the US. 

My brother and sister live in the US at the moment, and thus I am pointing towards the Real Estate market around Savannah Georgia and Davis, California. 

Thank you for any suggestions. This seems like a very resourceful site!
