I am a Canadian/Mexican citizen with a rental property in Portland, Oregon.

and I really want to see what that second story about the Mexican drug cartel in Seattle has to do with anything.

@Patrick Shaw if your mental health is at stake find another place (without snakes) and face the music if there is any to be faced.

Not sure if the music is stopping or not, but the bigger lesson here is keep her card. 

The stucco wall and the metal window bars, the faded portrait of Malcolm X, the Mexican mural, the Filipino market sign, the segment of a “FOR LEASE” banner, and the neon sign advertising face masks and hand sanitizer tell a deep story of L.A.’s past and present as well as Martinez’s own biography.

Also with better restaurants and live music ;)I am a newbie to RE investing but I did house hack in Austin pre-COVID.

As you are the one who will get stuck with it when the music stops, it needs to be paid and charged to the tenant to avoid a massive bill in the end.  

As for the Hidden Hills house, the elephantine property is located in a guard-gated community perhaps most famous for being home to numerous professional athletes, hip-hop music stars and the Kardashians.

You have to use either a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a Mexican corporation.

it reminds me of musical chairs, someone will eventually end up without a seat.The problem, just like in musical chairs, is knowing when the music is going to stop.
