I am eager to begin investing, but I want to make sure I am making the right decision to assure my family remains financially stable. 

They must understand the "subject to" arrangement, including the risks associated with the due-on-sale clause and the fact that the mortgage remains in the original borrower's name.It’s advisable to have all agreements and disclosures in writing to avoid future disputes.Buyer’s Financial Stability:Ensure the new buyer is financially stable and capable of making the mortgage payments.

We don't want or need to grow larger than 10 investment properties since this is really just a side hobby and retirement security.  

For me I think Belize is a safer place with a more stable government than Panama....but I have not done a whole lot of research.

A lower cap rate indicates that the market has a lower perceived risk in the deal ( meaning that the tenant is MORE likely to fulfill their obligations under the lease) and a higher cap rate (generally) indicates a higher perceived risk (Tenant is LESS likely to fulfill the obligations under the lease or that the income is somehow less stable).

If you have stable income, good credit, and an emergency fund get in the game. 

Even though i am 26, employed, have savings, and a stable job - too much protection is never a bad thing.However, i find it very sketchy and somewhat car salesman-like that all these companies keep spamming me with mail and warning me of "last notice or else i will never be able to protect my mortgage ever again."

I am hoping to fast track my retirement and generate wealth through real estate.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

I'm retired military so I plan to use the VA and the OTC loan for it.

Stable Income: Rental income provides a steady cash flow, potentially offering passive income once expenses and mortgage payments are covered.3.
