I care solely for passive rental income with this part of my portfolio but I am happy to learn to remodel with a hired crew and architect if it signifcantly increases passive income returns.How to Get Started:I need to be on the ground walking looking for for sale signs as I take a trip through Bogota, Cali, Medellin, and Santa Marta.

Hey Stephen, I live in Medellin Colombia and I have real estate experience here in Colombia and in the US.

Hello All,I've been thinking about getting a vacation rental in either Buenos Aires, Argentina or Medellin, Colombia.

Martin I just message him on FB that I am coming down to Medellin in 5 days and book a flight (see you Thursday)The local meetups and national events are great. 

Quote from @Stephanie Medellin: I'd guess it's a smaller lender or bank that might keep its loans. 

I'm in Medellin now and have been here 6 months in the last year.  

Quote from @Stephanie Medellin: @Alan Taylor  This may not apply to you, but you mentioned "second home" which is a vacation home. 

Quote from @Stephanie Medellin: @Casey Martin  The comment above about your Mom selling tax free is definitely something I'd take into consideration if nothing has changed hands yet.  

I am specifically looking at Medellin but open to other spots. 

The city where I'm staying (Medellin) has a vibe that reminds me of what Austin and San Francisco had 20+ years ago.
