Just wanted to see if anyone has had any success with off shore banking.

The cash you can "Throw at this" will probably figure into it, unless it's some type of high risk strategy where you have to do X a lot times in hopes of getting result Y (in which case it's more of a gamble than an investment).And as Kenny Rogers said in "The Gambler", "You never count your money when your sitting at the table".Kenny Rogers "The Gambler"But if you are gambling, then realize that sometimes gambles pay off and sometimes they "Crap Out".Good Luck!

While the potential increase is a gamble from zero to infinite, the security of not creating a lease no longer appealing to the company is guaranteed.

It's really a gamble which way pay model is best, per-plow vs contract. 

CON- It's a gamble & if your timeline for returns is short then it may not be worth the risk.

Has the neighborhood improved or is it a huge gamble still?   

Thank you @Paul Martin, I've been focusing on offshore VAs for cost reasons, but finding that many have little experience. 

Unless you just have loads of money to gamble with. 

I would gamble it all, spend it on more toys than I can afford, give away to ungrateful friends, and be happy forever....

I'd probably be gambling on appreciation, refi after a decrease in interest rates, or forced appreciation / rent increase via doing a rehab the first year.
