Hello Michael and best of luck in your last year/season!

Also, it depends how good of a deal you get and how good an operator (or the one you work with) are.Assuming you buy the "right" property in the "right" place overseas, you'd typically have a higher unlevered ROI overseas because a) a like-kind property would be cheaper and b) the (high) season could be longer and therefore the revenue higher.The US used to have the advantage of the financing (availability + interest rate).
