Wow.. that kinda makes me jealous.Well you would have to lern a foreign language, put up with kangaroo street brawls, and I understand their plumbing fundamentals are completely backwards.

Moving legal entities abroad, e.g. a B.V. outside of the Netherlands is more complex (and you need to deal with foreign tax inspectors not knowing the legal entity which makes it costly).If you wish to take it up to the European level (EU) consider a supranational type of legal entity:* EEIG: European Economic Interest Grouping, like our VOF in the Netherlands* SE: European public limited liability company, e.g. for holding companies* (SCE: European cooperative society (SCE), for cooperatives)For worldwide investing: think of trusts.In any case, real estate investing is legally and fiscally driven and you need to consult a attorney and a tax specialist.

Wholesaling virtually is a foreign concept to me.

Not a very welcoming environment around here it seems like....don't worry about all the replies from the Peanut gallery.. just hang in there you will figure out who's who over time.one thing about BP everyone has an opinion.. and on tax matters half the time the CPAs are all arguing amongst there selves.. keep in mind from my cheap seats all the CPA s I have worked with have levels of how aggressive they are comfortable signing off on.I went through this with my Portfolio interest program for foreign investors.. my long time CpA just could not get behind it..

@Nick BrandonAs mentioned above consult with a CPA about the taxation of nonresident aliens and foreign investors.

Just check out Detroit and what the foreign marketing companies have done to investors there. and basically any big city that is a big Turn Key or Cash flow market...
