There are different laws and nuances that you would consider when buying in a different country.

@Matthew Becker (Aus) is there a wild difference in Niche markets within countries?

That’ll definitely make a difference I would say.

There are two different servicers involved. 

That side of my portfolio is most definitely a business and not passive at all.While the note investing world is a small niche, within that world is a wide range of different investment types.

Another option is a DSCR loan where some lenders have shorter seasoning or waiting periods- I've seen some that are three months which can make a big difference for an investor getting cash out of a deal and using it on a new project.More info on DSCR loans: DSCR loans won't use your income to underwrite the loan.

Residential is wayyyy different. 

Have a mortgage broker, not a bank, run different scenarios.
