This really comes down to what your ultimate goal is. 

I guess there has also been talk of moving some government entities out of Washington, like the FBI.How does all that factor into your analysis?

@Sarah HartsteinThe way you spoke so highly of your success embodies what investing is all about.The more I research investors who are successfully investing outside the country, the more I feel inclined to shift my goals toward international real estate investments rather than focusing solely on opportunities within the U.S.I will most certainly keep you in mind once I am ready to expand my portfolio! 

It might just make more sense to buy another property and move on.
