Emphasis in operations include: repetitive, methodical process; unsolicited direct mail campaigning; forced value generation; off-MLS marketing; market arbitrage; options, and creative Seller financing.

I also went to college, not that it is mandatory, and I got a business degree with real estate emphasis.  

After looking around I have decided to invest globally in order to have the advantages of having a worldwide portfolio (that is less fragile to local market crashes), and because the ROI in Israel isn't that investor friendly.

Once the money starts flowing I would then use a percentage of profits to contribute to local or global causes.

We are mostly interested in Buy and Hold Investments, with an emphasis on multi-family units, but we are also considering the occasional flip when the market is right I found the Bigger Pockets podcasts on YouTube and am hooked, I'm so excited to have access to such an awesome community, especially being a newbie!

I've given people I know who trust me personal guarantees and got loans for 1/2 my downpayment (they know I'm good for it as I can cover the debt on a global cash flow level).

Cause if not I wouldn't put too much emphasis on it.

But the internet told me it had cheap houses, one of the highest global crime rates, and awesome rental returns, so I did what any wise investor would do and spent all my savings on a rundown out-of-state rental property.
