Domestic Real estate vs International Real Estate

Does anyone know the protocols of  investing outside of the US. ( I understand that each country has different laws and regulations) I wanted to know if it is more lucrative to start investing in countries such as Cuba or Thailand vs investing in the US?

I think it always safer to invest within an hours drive of where you live. This will greatly reduce your risk.  

Investing overseas is really for those that know what they are doing.  Laws, customs, standards of practice vary enough within our own country....going abroad with your money is just a large risk to take if you do not know what you are doing.
