Low taxes, low crime, low homelessness, friendly people, all 4 seasons, etc!

I'd also stay away from the low priced properties that look too good to be true.

@Alecia Loveless is correct--tenants need access 24/7 to their electric service panel, water and heat, assuming those are individual utilities for each unit. 

With down payments as low as 5-10%, plus low property taxes compared to the U.S., investing in German real estate is more accessible than you might think.If you’ve ever thought about owning property overseas but felt intimidated, stay tuned.

Low risk property. 

That seem like a very low for a furnished rental.   

Maybe I'm no longer a low risk bond investor, maybe I'm parking my money in $VOO instead, CRE REITs, or perhaps higher risk higher return bonds. 

At a low LTV you should be able to get in the high 6s 

Getting a mother-in-low to co-sign is not the answer.

Not too bad when the inventory is low, the number of sales is low (like a 30 year low), interest rates are high and prices are high.
