So...Assuming we're considering the advantages for American's to invest in Japan, I personally think it only makes sense in a select few situations. 

Do you think using lexisnexis would work for skiptracing to find a person's phone number?

In theory, you could QT the property to an LLC in your name and enter into a lease with you personally.

I personally spend about 50K a year in masterminds and always get my money back just through network of individuals you get access to.

Most margin loans and SBLOC are Prime + or FFR +, and the ones Im familiar with are 8-13% right now.The only other thing I can think of is that if you're a HNW with a good relationship with your private banking team, maybe theyll give your a personal line based on your net worth and assets with them.  

Personally, my strategy (in the midwest) has changed over the past few years and BRRRR hasn't been the go-to approach as much.

It was a personal referral, received a credit at closing for renovations as well How did you finance this deal?

I can't just put the LLC's income directly into my joint personal tax return, right?

@Tanner Davis If you want to pursue either a fix/flip or BRRRR strategy, it sounds like you might need to find a partner/investor that knows you well and believes enough in you as a person to invest money in a project.
