I recently quit my job to dedicate full time to RE investing.Given the macro instability Latin American economies faced for decades, people with savings are constantly looking out for opportunities to invest in the US, specially in RE.So, a few months ago I partenered with a RE developer from my country and we are now focused on getting multifamily deals in Florida.Looking forward to connecting with all of you and adding value where I can!

@Or Uzi I am out of country investor as well and would love to connect and know more about your experience.

Unfortunately, North Jersey is probably one of the hardest BRRRR markets in the country right now because of extremely low inventory, high demand, and pushed up prices because single-family home buyers are buying the properties that we all used to buy to fix up because they are desperate.You can BRRRR, carefully, into many parts of Pennsylvania though but remember that interest rates right now make it very hard to BRRRR.

Quote from @Greg Jeanfreau: @Vante Jay As with juat about everywhere else in the country The New Orleans market has many many active investors.

This may be challenging with both of you in full-time W2 jobs, but worth considering if one of you can transition to real estate part-time.Alternatively, the Short-Term Rental (STR) loophole offers another path.

The seller needed to move out of the country so they wanted to sell and shut down the property.

@Jesse Jones-SmithCongrats on the job and housing perks—those open some interesting paths!

In those two specific states there is just a ton of build-able lots especially SWF so you dont have a supply issue like other areas of the country that are supply constrained and therefore prices are holding or even rising a tad.

@Richard PastorI would urge you to get a commitment from a lender on a heloc BEFORE going down this path.

Like aircraft checklists and vehicle operators manuals (the -10s), one can benefit from extensive research, trial and error, and deliberate improvement principles gained by the many that have gone the path before.
