Diego,I thought your post was pretty intriguing - you might want to talk with QED property in England, https://www.qedproperty.com/. 

Go to HOUZZ and look at gravel driveways in New England-they have it down and many use a granite atone or paver border-This is best and aesthetically pleasing.But, if you want budget friendly, there is a cheap fix.

SO, all that said, we bought our first and our last house while posted to England, and we have had 19 single family houses that we bought on our own, and have another bundle of houses with a partner.  

I know this post is centralized around out of state investing but with $70k you have plenty of options here in MA or other parts of New England.

I am originally from Maine, so I'm quite familiar with new england in general.  

We're approaching the same point in the near future.We bought our first house in England, and slowly improved it so that by the time we returned to the US, we had some profit...and the pound to dollar rate had also improved, thankfully. 

My partner and I have formed our LLC and are researching small multifamily buy and holds in Palm Beach county and Northern New England (quite the geo. span, i know!)  

@Mike Abramov The book @Scott England referred is  Long-Distance Real Estate Investing by David Green. 

Also most companies have given me a start date/time frame of end of March early April due to the our lovely New England weather.
