Thanks to BP fellows for the inspiring suggestions in my another thread of investment opportunities.This is a continued question from that post: what's the financing options on commercial real estate properties, for foreigners.

All wars fought by Americans took place on foreign soil in far away countries and did not effect the average American.

Employment will continue to rise.Inflation fueled by debt will be the greatest threat by end of the year, but I think we've seen this year that it's a delayed risk which the stock market/mortgage rates can overlook in the short run.In Atlanta, I think we'll see rents continue to rise sharply while new construction continues to spin up and non-investor buyers come back into the market.I think multi-national companies, domestic consumer goods/services, and foreign markets will outperform this year.Take this with a grain of salt.

Anyone choosing to using an out-of-state (foreign entity) should consult with an attorney or at the very least review how the state defines "doing business" in their state.

They can be very dishonest and untrustworthy when doing business with foreigners.

You can incorporate in another state and file what they call a "foreign LLC" in Washington if they have atrocious asset protection laws there.

Excited to hear what you've got in store - pls keep us updated with what you find as it seems we're both exploring this foreign territory together.

I know a little more about Costa Rica than some other foreign countries because I do have business associates that live there.

Supposedly, Conspiracy theorists contend that the governments of the United States, Canada, and Mexico are already taking steps to implement such a currency, as part of a "North American Union (NAU)" No current members of any country's government have officially stated a desire to create such a body, nor introduce a common currency, but does this sound fishy to anyone else but me as to why nobody's talking about this?

Others have to cut themselves free from the family before they can find acceptance as investing is a foreign concept.As Mike and Ryan suggested, find a local REIA.
