I'm also relatively young and interested in some more "challenging" investments (although recognizing that I would have to do everything remotely and source through a property management company like yours).

She has a FB page where she takes donations, maybe an idea for you?

Second, even in countries that do allow foreigners to buy investment properties relatively easily (like Spain), you typically have to come up with much larger down payments (like 40%+) as a foreigner.

I know that my *least profitable* "door" right now nets $518.51 every month (I just checked), and that's a number I'm satisfied with relative to the amount of work I'd have to do to improve it, and I'd hazard most people who are door collectors aren't making anywhere near that kind of money on probably their best units.  

Somewhere there is a relative scenario where it’s not worth it.  

I am still learning and it is my first property so I have my own things I'd like to learn more of such as learning the airbnb system, appearing on first page majority of the time, increasing my occupancy to 95% all year round, and researching direct booking. 

As a professional property manager, I'm coming across an interesting trend related to institutions providing financial assistance for tenants who have trouble paying their security deposit and I would love to hear feedback from the BP community.Large PM companies have begun partnering with financial institutions, such as Rhino Insurance, to help tenants who struggle with paying their security deposit.

Your Lender If you need a deal finder my suggestion would be to go to the top of this page where it says AGENTS & click on that.

Most turnkey companies proforma does not tell the complete story and that is why is called "PROFORMA" OR "PROJECTION", they don't account for the true vacancy, leasing fees, holding costs, and Headache factors that come with a Class C and D properties and neighborhoods.Hopefully, they can help you get to 100% occupancy and sell the property so that you can re-invest in a better neighborhood and relatively newer property like 2020 or newer if is possible in that market, or just go to another market you understand better or have some kind of connection with.All the best and keep us posted on your progress.

I’ve heard about partnering with insurance companies for displaced families, working with military personnel in need of temporary housing, and possibly connecting with other organizations that require mid-term accommodations.I tried reaching out to GEICO about insurance-related housing needs, but they didn’t seem to have a clear process.Does anyone have experience with this niche?
