I have enough in my US accounts to buy a property outright but I'd prefer to buy with leverage. 

This is my preferred means of purchasing rental properties for cash from the SDIRA. 

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

And they'll want you to pay off the loan pretty soon (and usually will you as the rate will probably be higher than banks) so there's that too.For this reason, we definitely prefer private lenders as they will (if you've built trust with them) often lend on the rehab too.

Played those games for years. 

It's a relationship game more than anything, so if you're building strong relationships with them and providing a consistent product, you'll be golden.

Once you’ve made all of the rookie mistakes and have your SOPs in order, you can go invest out of state with a game plan.

We had been to lots of seminars and guru programs looking for a way to get into the real estate game. 

I prefer public comments here before you send a direct message, though. 

•Deal evaluation: Simple, actionable advice or tools to help me confidently analyze and structure deals.I’m also looking to network with wholesale-minded agents, understand local buyers’ preferences (buy boxes), and explore mentorship or partnership opportunities that can help me gain momentum.I’m eager to learn, take action, and build something impactful for my family.
