Is it risky or difficult to flip a house overseas?

[Galit Garsiel]

Does overseeing repairs overseas online present a problem?

Of course, I'll show up to see the house before the repairs, and maybe again after they're done. And I'll pay for each repair only after the job is done, so the handymen won't run off with my money. But I won't stay overseas for a long time. 

Some countries don't have capital gains tax, such as Belize. Buying a house and living in it is difficult for me for reasons to long to write in one post. 

Do you recommand flipping a house overseas?
