I went to Air Force avionics training in Denver '67-'68 and loved in, was stationed in Colorado Springs '70 and part of '71 and was ready to move back when I returned from Germany in '77.

My name is Jon Baker and i am a medic in the US Army currently stationed in Germany, working at the largest american military hospital outside of the US, taking care of our wounded service members from Iraq and Afganistan.

@Michael Sherwood I am actually in Germany for the next few months but maybe we could connect sometime in the Spring/Summer.I will be in Central NY for the majority of the summer and regularly make the drive through Buffalo to visit family in Oakville.

I lived in Germany for awhile in the '70s.

My name is Bernie Germani, and I'm from Lakewood California((near Long Beach).

Its a stat from 2007, but we were still consuming a lot of Chinese crap back then too.Imports - partners:Definition Field info displayed for all countries in alpha orderChina 16.9%, Canada 15.7%, Mexico 10.6%, Japan 7.4%, Germany 4.8% (2007)

Germany's a big one.

I just finished reading the great book "Rental property Investing"and would really like to start my journey of real estate in the US.I have 2 single homes at Germany ( can advise if anyone is interested).I have a question regarding mortgage for foreigners, is it possible in the US (with reasonable interest)?

Did you target foreign buyers at all or they just happened to be buyers from Germany interested?
