We have a great house in houston that is an ideal wrap.

Ideally it would be beneficial if this is also in an area that you would have interest in visiting from time to time since it is a good idea to still check on properties in person from time to time.

This allows you to really niche down and target your ideal tenant demographic.

I'm European, spent most of my life in Europe and have owned property in several European countries and I can tell you categorically that it doesn't not reflect the situation in most European markets and, by the way, Chris rightfully never suggested that it does.Of course, if Americans want to reap the benefits of investing in Europe, they'd ideally need to, as you suggest, get the right market knowledge, understand the local financing and housing laws and I'd add to this the legal system.

I am the owner of DealMachine and take personal responsibility for making sure we communicate clearly and have issued a refund to you (the initial charge was April 2023 and it is 2025 now... sorry it took so long to see this).Direct mail is a hard cost, so when you send out direct mail, you get the first 20 free during the free trial.

This lack of competition can allow for more favorable negotiations and greater chances of securing desirable properties.Since pre-foreclosures are not yet on the market, investors can often negotiate directly with homeowners, potentially resulting in more flexible terms.

Ideally not too much of both.The best way to learn what makes a good deal is to just keep analyzing.

I'm not completely foreign to the construction process as I grew up around a family that was involved in home building, but due to living in another state I can't really lean on them for the direct, hands-on guidance. 

Quote from @Evan Haas: I'm focusing on 2-4 MF properties, but if the numbers worked for 5+ when I'm open to that too, I just am assuming I don't have the capital yet to go in that direction.
