I’ve taken time to study markets in each state and identified a few promising opportunities.

However, the problem is that I currently live in Northern Ireland and will go to university either at the University of Edinburg, in Scotland the London School of Economics to study economics and politics.

If you had 20 years of experience, great connections in the US, and knew your market in and out then I would say you could probably leverage at a higher rate and could probably manage that risk because you have substantially decreased all of the other risks.You should really study what happened in the US during the 80's when overleverage on real estate put a lot of people in a bad spot.

It sounds like there are a lot of techniqualities to this I will be studying on. 

Lots to study there.

Someone could have income from a pension, disability, investments, or even Section 8 without being employed.I'm not taking the time to study your market, but the ad looks pretty good.

Then do everything you can to study that specific real estate niche and then start to partner of some deals to help you gain experience and confidence.  

@Eric Lowe Prior to pulling the trigger on a Cost Seg study, you should evaluate 2 things:1 - How much net additional deprecation tax deductions a Cost Seg study would provide: Best way to get this is by requesting a free feasibility analysis from a Cost Seg provider.

Study the market.
