Pest control is a biggie, too.I married a first gen immigrant, and while we were dating, he lived in grad student housing that was mostly occupied by international students, and I also had friends growing up living in married student housing at another major university. 

I've been listening to the podcasts and doing tons of research, but I'd like to introduce myself and see if anyone would be able to offer some advice on my situation.I am a US citizen from California, but my partner (who is a UK citizen) and I are currently living in Vancouver, Canada.

Hey @Jess Hanner ~ I'm currently stationed in the UK, but originally from MO myself.

My family is from South Sudan and moved here right before I was born, being a first generation immigrant, and my mom not being able to speak english we’ve had our fair share of struggles over the years.

BTW, I lived in Parker before moving to the UK.

Also known as “credit invisibles,” these are mostly low-income minorities and immigrants, and having access to their personal habits and behavior as exhibited on the internet is supposed to help banks and other lenders “profile” them precisely enough to determine if they should be given a loan.On the other hand, citizens who are “scorable” but whose score is low might suffer in the new system now in the making, as their online activity could persuade lenders to cut them off from access to money.Although the move in this direction looks inevitable, some key answers are missing: what data scraped from the internet will be used to determine someone’s credit rating, and how it will be secured.IMF’s post warns, however, to expect an “efficiency-privacy trade-off.”https://reclaimthenet.org/imf-...

A family home in Northern Ireland (technically UK) needs to be sold.

In fact, she’s an immigrant, and does not speak English fluently.

I don't plan on ever holding or mortgaging the property especially since it won't cashflow.In my this sounds like a pretty straightforward play given the steady growth of the area's tech sector which I believe will actually be accelerated given a lot of tech companies are looking to open satelite offices in Canada due to the encouraging adoption of remote work, cheaper and abundant tech talent and uncertainty of american immigration causing a lot talent to move to Canada.The biggest risk I see is whether or not the specific property I buy will be in demand in 3 years:Who are the demographics that will actually be buying homes… not the 22-24 year old coming out of school and working at a tech companies but perhaps the late 20s to 30s folks who are settling with a partner and kids.

All of these guys (6 in total) have good credit and immigration papers in the works (both of which I think they care about).
