The combination of Germany's stable economy, well-regulated property market, relatively low interest rates, and the opportunity for long-term capital appreciation make it a compelling choice for U.S.

I'll be looking for long term rentals that don't need any major repairs initially. 

Time is the #1 ingredient in a long-term investor's success. 

The only inssue is that i have not found many people in the area that have done it and would like to ask if any one here has done ADU's in Orange County or Long Beach and has it been worth it for you . 

I’ve been thinking about partnering with a successful wholesaler and seeing if they will expand their operation to include the zip codes I am interested in.Example:  I would like to partner and give money to a successful Detroit or Texas wholesaler and see if they are willing to add my Georgia target market to their operations.Before moving forward, I wanted to get some feedback and advice from those who are wholesalers or who have partnered with wholesalers.Has anyone ever heard or have experience in a partnership like this? 

But by building a successful short term rental business on someone else’s property aren’t you giving away the increase in value of the property resulting from your efforts to the property owner?  

If appreciation and scalability are your long-term goals, consider house hacking or saving for a bigger market later.

Rental properties come in several flavors... short term, long term, etc.  

As long as the wholesaler is direct with the seller and the deal is real, go for it.

I’ve been in this business a long time, and I know firsthand how overwhelming that first deal can feel—especially when it comes to financing.
