But, as my wife and I have done this over the past 5 years, we have found it moves less and less each time, and that we are essentially living the life we envisioned 5 years ago when we started this process. 

Ultimately, it’s about trusting your gut and assessing each situation individually.

Should we wait until we move to the states or start the process now?

Pros: the cabin will be able to house our entire family, easy process to refinance.

I’m especially interested in residential rentals, STR's, or multifamily properties, but I’m open to exploring other areas as well.I’m here to connect with like-minded individuals, gain insights from experienced investors, and contribute however I can to this community.

Every individual contract is different.

We often need to ask the right questions to help determine the best route for each individual.

However, I had to subordinate the sellers note to 2nd position (hint: set up that language in advance to streamline the process, if that's the direction you're going to go).Since the ARV was high enough, and the potential income would support the mortgage and expenses, it all worked out. 

So far the process is simple. 

This started my thought process that maybe I should sell.
