With completing a 1031 exchange into a more expensive property, their depreciation table would reset as well, providing an even greater benefit. 

I do think it is a good idea to take some money off the table when an asset runs up and diversify.  

Living and working overseas can present unique challenges when it comes to securing financing, but there are definitely loan options designed for situations like yours.

I don't have to worry about collateral casualties from a round going through a wall, like with a rifle, and the best thing is the unique sound working the pump makes.

This has probably been the one thing that has helped me scale my portfolio so much and so quickly within the past 6 years.So the things that I would bring to the table that a new investor wouldn’t have access to (at least at the beginning until they build their own systems and networks) would be my knowledge and streamlining of getting financing, having deal flow, using vetted and skilled subcontractors, discounted prices on materials, systems in place to find tenant buyers, and streamlined refinancing and management in placeIt is similar to turnkey, only you don’t have to put 25% down and you walk into equity and the exit is already planed and the tenant buyer gets connected with a lender upfront to help them get ready to exercise in the option within 3 years.So that is what makes this different than other models.

It’s such a big leap of trust, and unfortunately, there are agents who don’t always live up to what you need in this process.An out-of-state investment can be daunting, and it’s so important to have someone in your corner who truly understands your financial goals and is committed to building a relationship beyond just getting to the closing table.

Yeah, lenders are cool with it, especially if they have something unique like a great FTHB program.Like I said, go right to HR/payroll and ask them.

Shall we get a table for dinner or just go to a bar?
