I'm an English major and teacher by trade, if that matters at all. 

Starting out, you probably only speak English, so that is not realistic.

Ten BP bucks says McKinney would get the corporate aviation business. ;)

I started my search locally in the DC area (my heart still skips a beat at the thought of a townhome with an English basement) but everything here is way too expensive and 2-4 unit multifamilies in DC are mythical.

I made the same points that I made above and he said that wouldn't matter.I took the test in a large college classroom, think English 101 your Freshman year.

When George Soros shorted against the Pound and made a fortune at the expense of the Bank of England, it actually helped the English economy after 1992 as their exports were cheaper.But history shows that currency wars have huge implications on the US real estate markets. 

Not tied to these markets so any suggestions are more than welcome these are just the ones I have researched to date.I also know I need a solid property management company.I graduated from the University of Colorado a while ago and work in Aviation in the Denver area.

My Goal in life is not have to worry about money and give back to my community .I am hoping to find Mentors,  Investors, Brokers, Agents, Property Managers, Attorneys, CPA to be part of my Team.I bring to the table 22 years experience in Construction as DC, MD and VA Master Electrician , Integrity, Capital,I Speak English and Spanish.

@James English I am in negotiation on a duplex in North Nashville (house hack) but I have been driving Murfreesboro looking for potential properties.

Fortunately, I had a few things going for me:* 15 years of business & entrepreneurial experience having started two English institutes in Korea.* Work ethic & drive* And most helpful of all, my ’secret’ weapon, BiggerPockets and it's awesome community It was through BiggerPockets that the complex world of real estate investing began to slowly reveal itself to me and I started to connect with key people who would help me make my first investment.I met two of my investing partners, @Maxwell Lee & @Kelly L., through BiggerPockets - They were colleague Request #16 & #17.I met @John Van Uytven through BP, who had the brilliant idea of throwing our regular coffeeshop meetings on Meetup.com to see who else wanted to join us out here in Korea.And little by little, inch by inch, that meeting has grown and grown into a full-fledged meetup.I still remember @Joshua Dorkin , BP CEO, agreeing to speak at our meetup and wanting to Skype to work out the details.
