Myself I used my own internal funds to prove my model.

Second Street is an international mortgage lender actively investing in Costa Rica.

Over time I internalized Dave’s words and made them my own; taking on nearly all the fund investor calls, building and managing the Investor Relations team and overseeing the process of raising over $80MM together.

What is the speed of the internet, is it hot water (international property holders), is it AC.These basic clear descriptive items are great because if the price is fair and it clearly states the benefits.

H there, I'm a certified international property specialist and while i don't personally specialize n Costa Rica,  have several colleagues who do.  

Don't let the plywood fool you - the interior pictures on the listing are nice.

Based out of Manassas, VA here :) The 750-hour rule is part of the IRS guidelines for qualifying as a real estate professional under Section 469 of the Internal Revenue Code.

New Roof, New Windows, Paint interior/Exterior, New Appliances, New Garage Door, New Fascia, New Fixtures (Bathroom and Ceiling fans), Electric Service Upgrade, 1204 Sqft, built 1960.

Some, like the last one we got in place, used a drive by estimate of value rather than a full interior appraisal.  

I care most about the Internal Rate of Return (helps me determine how long to hold a property), the cash on cash return (helps me decide why this investment vs other options, and it also takes into consideration appreciation of the property!)
