Some of the early immigrants would lift the foundation of the property and put in a downstairs apt.

The biggest problem you will run into is if you hire an illegal immigrant, or if the company you hire uses an illegal immigrant.

My experience is with UK CF platforms.

To spend equivalently in the UK, it appears we'd do well to get one unit for the same outlay i.e. $950 for a $150,000 spend equivalent in £, rather than $2950.

The upside is, if you can get something at the right price, it'll on-sell or rent quite easily, as the population is expanding rapidly.Apartments seem to be doing a return to popularity, again possibly because a lot of the immigration prefers these type of dwellings.

I have a property in Ireland in mind and have asked if the sellers will carry, but could also do a private money loan from the US or UK, and as it will be operated as a business (rental) would be open to a JV as well.

We are seeing growth from the energy boom as well as immigration.

The EB-5 program is used a lot for hotel development because it instantly meets the minimum number of permanent jobs created by the investment and a lot of hoteliers are immigrants.

I'd love to chat with folks from the UK (Eng) market.

We just moved back to FL after 12 wonderful years in the UK, so I am fluent in British English, Irish English, American English, Scottish English, but Welsh, not so much!
