Long term I want to buy and hold. 

Hello, long-time reader of BP, first-time poster!

Two months is too long to find a tenant (normally). 

That kind of appreciation is wonderful for long term hold investors but it's having a negative effect on investors entering the market. 

is there to lend a hand.Build a strong portfolio: My long-term vision is to own multiple mid to large multifamily buildings.

So far so good, tenant is good and says " they plan on staying for as long as I let her.

I mostly look at it as a long term play, but that somewhat depends upon the location in Nicaragua. 

So as long as you know you have 25 to 30% of the proposed deal in cash.. thats one.two do you have experience.. these are tough to get for first time borrower. ??

Or they could do their own strategic foreclosure stop paying rip the rents as long as you can and hand he keys back you will see lots of this coming up.

I was also thinking about a real estate course but as per my understanding, I wouldn't be able to be licensed because I'm still not living there, so my plan is to wait a bit more to enroll in a course to make sure I'll have all my documents ready first (apparently after the completion of the course, I will have no more then 6 months to do the exam to get licensed).Sorry for the long post (and maybe some grammar mistake) and thanks in advance to everyone :)Chiara Hi Chiara,Her course does teach you her way of analyzing properties and local trends by zipcode, but what I discovered after meeting local investors is that everyone has their own way of analyzing properties and their own interests in the different neighborhoods.
