Rest assured that everyone using this model is fed up.The name of the game now, as it probably should have always been, is diversification.

You need to clearly define criteria for what you want in the area you might invest in (cash flow, appreciation, vacancy rates, industry diversification, population growth, rent to homeowner percentage, purchase price, etc.).If you are considering the turnkey route, see what areas turnkey providers/promoters operate in, and see if any of these areas match your list. 

Diversification: Investing in commercial real estate allows for diversification within a portfolio.

@Jack HouI sold my Seattle properties back in 2015 to cash out then and went into syndications which are better for accredited investors due to No more managing tenants, vacancies, maintenance and the managing the manager (who is a $12-20 dollar employee who's compensation structure us not aligned with your goals) By passing the control of the day to day operations to true experts who are literally partners (direct alignment of compensation and motivations).Diversification: Many commercial real estate investments have high acquisition prices (think $10M+) where most people don't have access to.

.- Diversification: those who already have a solid portfolio of properties in the US can look forward to de-risking their business through diversification.

If I buy parts of the others is the lack of diversification something to worry about?

The Securities and Exchange Commission has released an investor alert addressing Self-Directed IRAs and the risk of fraud.One of the biggest risks of owning real estate in a Self-Directed IRA is the potential lack of diversification.

@Rossitza IovtchevaThere are many other reasons to invest in Mexico and, in my humble opinion, it's the best time ever to do it for a slew of reasons on top of those you mentioned, the main ones being a rising middle class, a booming tourism industry, a growing number of visitors beyond tourism (remote workers, expats and retirees), the best possible regulatory climate for short-term rentals, much lower prices and costs, diversification and asset protection.

A caveat to investing in another country would be getting residency or a second passport as a form of risk diversification.

They buy thousands of liens all over the country and your risk is much lower because of the diversification.
