Due diligence on target countries

[Brandon Goldsmith]

I have been constantly trying to do research on prospective countries and to see what type of real estate is hot in certain markets/counties and possibly not in others. I have been looking into Latin America mostly but have also done some research on other markets as well. I would like to get started in waterfront Airbnb focused assets eventually.

When doing your due diligence and extensive research on a country, what is the best way to go about this? I am curious on how to most efficiently make connections internationally, find the benefits to different tax laws, and ultimately wonder how people start off building global portfolios while minimizing their risk.

Any insight into the matter helps!
