Yes, I hate seeing the suffering but I am a professional solution profiter, I make $ off solving problems so MORE problems is a giant blue light special. 

You can always get another sales job, but are you on commission now with light salary or salary?

I seriously looked into Colombia some years ago and mildly looked into Cuba and even Venezuela and Argentina lightly. 

You could try getting a HELOC with your primary and using this money as short term funds to acquire rentals that need a light-medium renovation using 100% purchase/rehab hard money and just using the HELOC to pay points and holding costs.

Wondering if some community wide knowledge could shed light on potential solutions. 

.- Most of the deals that came our way were for 60-70yr old wood frame buildings, that had been owned by their current owner for 25+ yrs, and we felt there was a definite risk that the economic viability of the asset was less than our planned (buy and hold) time horizon, and we were also highly skeptical of the insurability of some of these buildings or that the cost of insurance would not balloon once the ownership transition forced the insurers to reassess the building.Ultimately we pivoted to retail/light commercial mixed use properties.

Be careful out there....some of the new builds are not comparable to the old builds....many of the newer ones are all siding, no brick, no light fixtures or ceiling fans...just LED recessed lighting...no doorbell, no garage door opener, no attic stairs, one piece tubs, vs tiled baths, no landscaping, no trees, and on and on....they've taken out virtually every single cost.
