Taxes are reasonable (in most areas), and there is a significant lack of quality affordable housing.  

Leverage - someone mentioned Real Estate doesn't beat stock market returns and while that might be true in absolute terms, it's definitely beat the market when you consider leverage.

The law does NOT apply to landlords:With less then 5 rental unitsThat live in one unit of a duplex and rent out the other unitThat rent out rooms in the home they occupySo, landlords can no longer state in their rental ads, "Section 8 not accepted".The reverse is also true, "Section 8 only", cannot be used.We've always recommended screening S8 tenants the same way as cash-paying tenants.Landlords waiving application fees and/or security deposits only for S8 prospects may also be violating Fair Housing.

This is especially true if you're trying to buy in the best location possible.

Rodrigues' recommendation may change this), but my next question would be, are there any cities/markets where 1 of the following are true: 1) You have family/friends that live there, 2) You travel there frequently (either for vacation, work, etc.), or 3) Somewhere else you've lived before AND know the area well?

It seems like a reasonable approach, but as you say, we'll have to wait to see what the final version of the law (if it indeed becomes a law) looks like, then figure out if a European corporation with third country investors is a reasonable solution. 

Not the intention, just being very direct here: I am not going to show those numbers for 2 reasons.1) if I did ( and I would blow you away if I did), it would only cause people to misunderstand what I am trying to teach and 2) I don't have to show you or anyone anything.

While I help people find their dream homes daily, my true passion lies in real estate investing and building long-term wealth.

There are a very limited and reliable few of lenders that do true DSCR 2nds.

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