I've been actively working with Australian investors who are buying in TX, NY, and TN.It seems your looking at some bigger land and devlopment deals, but who knows, maybe you'll run across an investor that needs my help.Ben Carmona

@Brent Coombs we have actually started selling properties to Australian investors based out of the Newcastle area.

I'm Australian (so just as far away as yourself) but based in the US now.

However, there are Australian investors as well and I have heard that there are quite a bit of them....Surely, you need to consider tax, financing, return and risk and that would be the same if you would be investing in real estate somewhere in Europe.  

NOT ALL but many.. so there is no reason to sell properties below market value like was done 5 to 8 years ago.the only way to get instant equity these days is to be a value add or distressed property buyer who spends thousands and its their job.. pretty tough to do remotely.. its a completely different model.so whatever you pay for a property that is market value.. you do want to run comps though some out fits that targeted Australians will defiantly sell for ABOVE market value.. so its important to get true comps on the properties before pulling the trigger

I keep hearing a lot of heartache from fellow Australian investors that have jumped in to quickly and got screwed over by shady turn key operators.Thanks for reading and feel free to reach out any time with questions.Have a great day.

I get Australian investors asking me if they can project manage their own rehabs from Australia lolI say its a disaster waiting to happen.

Hey BP community,I currently live in Australia and work with Australian real estate investors who are placing their capital to the US RE market.

Greetings from Sydney,I am newbie living in Sydney, still on fase 1 studing 2h per day and reading as much as possible, BiggerPockets is where I have been taking more inf from webinars, forums and of course the podcasts, but I am a bit concern and you guys might be able to help me.As you know Australian Real Estate market is slight different than in States, I was wondering if the great calculators that BiggerPockets offer can be used here as well, and about all the inf that I am getting every day from the forums and podcast how can I filter what would be usefull for the Australian Market.Cheers,

I noticed Australians were investing heavy in our market.
