I'm fine with that, but my goal is that the investor learns how to fish on his own, so that no matter what happens in life, they have the skill set to prosper. 

We really like the coverage Prosper offers.

The North Texas city's population has grown by 7% and its economic diversity has been a key factor in sustaining employment and population growth, according to the report.Austin's prosperity was tied with Fresno, California for a top 5 rank and total score of 59.9 points.

A quick Internet search of "Costa Rica Mortgage Loans" turned up a couple of brokers and private equity offerings.You could also try to get the seller to finance part of the purchase price.Or borrow it from your 401K, if you have one.Depending on your credit score, it might also be worth looking at rates from a local credit union, bank, or even Prosper or Lending Club for a personal loan rather than a real-estate secured loan.

I can see real estate getting more prosperous of an investment.

May your real estate journey be prosperous and may you never encounter a property that has a 6th, looking for a 250k 7th. 

Prosper is very expensive in my opinion, especially when starting out.

Your enthusiasm and dedication will undoubtedly lead you to a rewarding and prosperous career in real estate.

Wish peace, love & prosperity to all <3 

Wishing you all peace, love & prosperity!
