@James Hamling I agree, I didn't see where Ivan talked much about his team and networking contacts but for me those are most important to me being able to stay relevant and successful in my local market.

Looking for some guidance to better my chances of success. 

Their success speaks volumes however, its a bit much for me to stomach for a potential benefit. 

I lived in Madrid, Spain for about 8 months and I am curious if it is possible for non-residents to successfully have rental properties within the country.My concern is mostly from a tax standpoint and whether it makes sense.My research shows that Non-residents of Spain(but a resident of Europe) pay a flat rate of 19% on NET RENTAL INCOME.Non-residents of Spain(Not a resident of Europe, such as the USA) pay a flat rate of 24% on GROSS RENTAL INCOME.The difference of paying tax on Net and Gross is huge.Americans are not able to deduct expenses such as mortgage interest, taxes, insurance, cleaning, repairs, etcA pro that I can think about when it comes to invest in Spain is that overall costs are less - Mortgage rates are currently around 4% - 4.5% while it is around 6.5% - 7% in the US.Am I reading the tax law correctly?

Context: I just moved to Portland, OR and finally decided to pivot careers from healthcare into real estate.

Ineffective or Absent Conflict Resolution ProcessEvery successful group of people needs an effective conflict resolution process characterized by:simplicity to understand and remember;quickness to start and complete;a clear vocabulary.My company, Livingsmith uses and recommends the 5-on-5 Process for conflict resolution in co-living homes.2.

With the use of VRBO, Booking.com and direct bookings can all raise your chances of staying booked and being successful.  

So, WHY screw with a successful system that your able to operate without undue stress? 

If you’ve got any success stories, lessons learned, or even cautionary tales, I’d love to hear them.Thank you for welcoming me to this amazing community.

And the cost of legal defense , even if successful, will drive the company out of business.
