Oh, and I love Vegas too, so I don't mind people discussing that here - although it is off topic.

BTW how can I change the name? I guess I signed up here several years ago originally (or did it just use the name from the card?), but since got married :)

Not strictly, but mainly. I like to start out with the idea of buy and hold and then if there is a reason to sell and it brings a nice profit, then fine :) I am selling at least 2 of the properties in the next 6 months - just to buy other ones. I guess I am getting spoiled by the current climate and CAP rates and starting to dump the first ones which are less profitable (mostly outside of the US).

I love poker lol. I am still running an online poker school in Hungary :) And I still play online when I can. I used to live from online cash games and then invested the money in real estate. Used to be an Everest Poker pro, played - among others - the WSOP Main Event a couple of times and the EPT Final once. Live tourneys are a lot of fun! (Anyone interested in staking for the WSOP? lol)

Hmm.. I funded a big chunk of my college tuition with poker earnings. I think a biggerpockets poker tournament might be fun especially with all you high rollers lol.

Welcome to the forums Viktoria. Are you strictly buy and hold?

Welcome to BP, Viktoria. How did you come to own properties in 5 countries? Are they much of a management challenge?

Yes, it is quite a challenge especially in the countries where they are "more relaxed" :))) - like the South of Europe :D
However, I am just at the point where I am pretty confident in choosing my PM company to make it easy. US is usually the easiest.

LOL. My friend said to me : if your children ever say you are not cool, just show them your pics from the WSOP :D

Hi,
I started investing in real estate without knowing anything about it. Then when I already had 3-4 properties, I realized that I am actually a real estate investor now, so better learn how to do it right.

I educated myself and now I am focusing on the US. I own two properties in Nevada but I would like to get into the multi-family homes.

My goal on BP is to network, gain valuable information and hopefully find JV partners (who have funds to invest) and/or investors who are interested in Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson.

Viktoria

I heard that as a Canadian tax payer I am best off with a combination of a Canadian and US entity, does anyone have any advice on what structure to use? Thank you.
