In our little town, Buy & Holds will probably be the best strategy, but we are open to all sorts of techniques and methods.

Get to know them, buy them coffee and spend time with them.

The statement is buy real estate and wait, not wait to buy real estate.

@Amanuel GebrelibanosIf you are going to buy or sell 1 or more houses a year than you should get your license if you want to save money.

Most Costa Rican mortgage loans require %50 down which we have the cash for but we don't want to tie up that much of our liquid assets in one property as we intend to buy a 2nd property in the next year or so.

What is your buying criteria?

You could then buy in a nicer area and have your money work for you while still having a primary residence. 

I'm wondering if it would make sense to source modular homes in China and have them shipped to and assembled in markets like Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, and other where you can buy vacant lots with utilities for as little as a few thousand dollars.

They’ve become harder to find lately so if I see them I buy them all.

Usually, I buy with cash.
