I feel like being outside of the Nations Cap gives us an advantage as the market here is not quite as volatile compared to other markets. 

BP Nation rocks!

Welcome to BP Nation Chervon.

YEAH BP Nation!!

I've always been interested in becoming financially successful - and after an undergraduate, and masters degree - I realize my best opportunity is NOT in corporate America :) I've always been a reader on finance, investing, real estate - so this is a match made in heaven.I'm going to be buying my first home in the next 12 months - so I'm hoping I can make a wise decision that could also double as an investment now, or down the road.

Hello BP Nation =)I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong place.I have several friends in the Real Estate industry (in various aspects), and one of them owns properties in Los Angeles proper.

I thought I'd throw this out to the BP nation for an answer.I'm preparing to go to the courthouse in the county I live in, in Georgia next week to bid on a couple of properties.

Of course, investing out of country comes with tribulations of its own - you need a good accountant and real estate / corporate lawyer, with cross-border experience, on your team to ensure you set things up correctly from a legal and taxation perspective.

Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation is listed as the owner though, but I think they're a lender for Freddy Mac?

A Texas Representative, Jeb Hensarling, had this to say about the lack of accountability of the CFPB, “Arguably it is the single most powerful and least accountable Federal agency in the history of our nation.”
