Only billionaire activist investors can do that on Wall Street, and even then they're rolling the dice (cough, Elon, cough). 

Most of the water in the West comes from snow melting off the mountains, and as the climate warms, our winters are becoming significantly less snowy--this has resulted in significant water shortages in recent years.  ...so, we have steadily increasing demand for water and steadily decreasing supply...who knows where that will lead (History is not without examples of cities booming and busting, and one would think that water availability would be a necessary prerequisite for continued growth).It's hard to know when or how these issues might affect real estate in the western U.S. and the broader market (I'm not an expert on any of these topics, just a casual observer), but it's probably prudent to keep in mind that markets can be affected by more than the typical factors RE investors tend to analyze (such as rates, supply, demand, job availability, etc.).Go Bucs!

In comparison to other Western European countries the US tax code is very tough on those who are from overseas that invest in the US, as well as US citizens living and working overseas.

What about moneygram or western union?

... are there any property managers anyone would recommend in Niagara Falls, Buffalo, or Western NY in general?

I cant speak for your boards costs but the Buffalo Western NY MLS yearly fee is $500.

@Kimberlee Kennedy I think New Western Acquisitions and Net Worth realty are some of the few brokerages focusing exclusively on wholesaling.

And in some cultures being in debt is seen differently than in western countries.  

I have had several clients that were able to buy three multifamily properties in less than two years here in the western suburbs of Chicago using house hacking. 

I have 10 acres in Western Washington and I'm thinking about adding RV hookups and renting out pads.
