Kevin - One of the larger REIA's in the country is right in Philadelphia.

Stay on that path and you will be financially free (if you choose) within 10 - 15 years.

Fast forward to 2024, and we have a renewed interest on buying some multifamilies to hold, dabbing on mobile homes, and even buying some single family properties to flip.I am looking forward to learning from this wonderful group of investors, and follow some of you on your path.

I would recommend focusing on markets/sub markets that will provide a more consistent return so take your time and be careful in the areas you're investing in.Personally I prefer the middle/southern part of the country because the price points are much lower and the laws are landlord friendly.

Would love to discuss different paths you can take based on your investing goals and financing options based on your strategy.

Figuring out what path to take today will be very different if you're looking to start a real estate investing career, or you're just looking to diversify some of your investing.

Yes, I've been investing overseas for years and help many others doing so but investing internationally differs from country to country so asking about international and specifically in Bali.There can be fraud everywhere, including in the US, so you should always beware and the risk will be higher or lower, depending on the country.

Quote from @Brittany Guimond: I network with hundreds of property managers around the country.

Definitely a great place to learn about real estate investing and what makes this website so beneficial is you can really micro target specific areas of the country and learn a lot of good info first hand. 

Excuse me for any ignorant questions/assumptions, feel free to direct down the correct path to further my research.
