Completely agree that each market is unique, and success comes from actually doing the work.

Thank you guys and I wish you success and happiness In this field!!!

I lived in Madrid, Spain for about 8 months and I am curious if it is possible for non-residents to successfully have rental properties within the country.My concern is mostly from a tax standpoint and whether it makes sense.My research shows that Non-residents of Spain(but a resident of Europe) pay a flat rate of 19% on NET RENTAL INCOME.Non-residents of Spain(Not a resident of Europe, such as the USA) pay a flat rate of 24% on GROSS RENTAL INCOME.The difference of paying tax on Net and Gross is huge.Americans are not able to deduct expenses such as mortgage interest, taxes, insurance, cleaning, repairs, etcA pro that I can think about when it comes to invest in Spain is that overall costs are less - Mortgage rates are currently around 4% - 4.5% while it is around 6.5% - 7% in the US.Am I reading the tax law correctly?

I just saw that Antonella Parra Gonzalez, a third-grader at Harris Elementary School in Gilbert Public Schools, recently received the Arizona English Learner Students Success Story Award.Here in Austin, many investors are asking me to set up searches in Eanes ISD, Round Rock ISD (that also cover some homes within the Austin city limits), and then of course Leander and Lake Travis ISD.

Hi Zachary, congrats on the success you've had so far!

STRs need to be viewed from a 365 day lens so if the numbers work well then, you still can be successful.

One question for the community is: What are the next best steps I should take to further educate myself and get started in this industry to set myself up for future success?

“Your success is only because you started back in 2025 when prices were lower, it was easier, etc etc.

That's why I'm focusing on education first; I want to set a strong foundation before making my first deal.Apologies in advance-I'll be asking too many questions, just to warn you-but I really feel delighted to be aboard, learning from each and every one of you and subsequently sharing my own successes.
