When making offers I want to utilize the standard 70%-ARV-Profit formula.

Domes are probably the cheapest to get up and offer good cash flow.

Told them to do a drive by and call me back with an offer :)The person who called you probably just spent $15,000 for mentoring and “education”, and is now in panic that his 250 cold calls have not produced anything .  

While Treasuries are often viewed as "risk-free" investments, certain real estate deals in today’s market offer a compelling alternative—especially when purchased at a deep discount.Take, for example, a 1,000+ unit apartment complex in a suburb near Michigan.

Make the offer appealing by highlighting the short-term ROI from his renovation expertise and potential profit-sharing during the partnership.

I'm not too familiar with the markets yet but research I've done suggests that the towns of New Britain, New Haven and Hartford all have a good mix of inventory and low prices coupled with plenty of amenities, night life, cafes, etc and local colleges to bring younger people to the area year after year.

When a lease ends they’ll suggest new rents and if the tenant hold be offered a renewal. some will offer to transfer utilities for you when it goes vacant, all should handle the transfer when a tenant moves in  With 10 properties I don’t “talk” to my PM more than 2-3 times a year.

The seller offered financing with 20% down, which I used to buy the place.After starting construction and realizing it was going to cost more than expected, I approached a small local bank that knew the property and would offer the rehab financing. 

In my post I was just trying to offer another perspective.

I'm not sure what the markets are like in Edinburgh or London, but I would look into house hacking in one of those cities once you know which one you'll be in.You definitely can invest in rentals in the US remotely, there are plenty of investors that do.
