One of my pilot buddies had 8 homes across the country all initially funded by the VA loan and then once he moved or bought another home refinanced and used the VA loan again. 

Hi All,Am a dual Citizen (US Born/family from Portugal) and am looking to invest in Portugal that has become increasingly popular in tourism and economically as a country.

Pricing for HML or PML which are the exact same thing.. typically are very regional  some areas are quite a bit higher than others.. the Lowest in the Country is for prime CA. real estate then everything gets more expensive as you move form state to state. with some of the East cost states being quite a bit more.. but there is a ton of risk loaning in NY PA NJ given their foreclosure rules etc so thats why rates are generally higher there .

Also, you may want to check city records / land maps with the country recorder's office. 

It's my understanding that you need someone that is local to be a majority owner (for many of the Asian countries).

I'm also partially blind which made it hard to see all problems prior, he tried getting me to do a video chat with him on pissedconsumer.com where he has most of his negative reviews listed.Thankfully my landlords  now are amazing they arent cross country and come as soon as I message or call them. 

In my market right outside of DC, often considered recession-proof with some of the best demos in the country, I know of multiple projects where the current owners paid too much have foreclosed, or are bleeding money as they try to get projects stabilized and paying for themselves.

You're really investing all over the country. 

The areas of the country that are the most anti-landlord are also where you make the most money, because they have the highest demand.

Or, is it smart to have your job, all your real estate, stocks and everything in one single country and at the whim of a single government?
