I make a decent amount of money nearly from my W-2 (over 100k) but still not enough to easily buy another property this year especially if I have to put down 20%.

I spend money on postcards, distressed lists and a website.

I see too many investors now, put a significant amount of money in rehab costs and over leverage themselves on hard money loans with low down payments, their properties are not selling and they are lucky to just payoff their current hard money loan via a DSCR refinance. 

It also takes experience in the asset class that you're raising money on.

They are running a personal brand, and I would rather donate my money to a good cause than their next mountain home. 

OPJust borrow the money in the US and use it in Belize.

I actually met my Houston realtor through BiggerPockets, and he highly recommended the area.

Hi Mike,Actually I joined Raisemasters last year! 

My deadline to back out of my real estate transaction and get my earnest money back was Dec. 12.

It’s called TIME VALUE OF MONEY.
