Oftentimes, you may find yourself needing vendors who can respond to 9/11 calls in the event you are not in the area, city, and or country.

@Richard Poist Financial IQ, as Robert Kiyosaki puts it, comes in many forms so don't think real estate investing is the only path.

In addition to COVID you have subletting, illiberal subletting, tenant been there for months, you were made whole etc....lots of spinning parts and a local legal expert is really needed to help you brake down the parts and find a path forward. 

I'm weary of doing remodeling when I'm clear across the country and without a solid property management company.

Hi,We are finalizing our refinance on our primary with penfed and are planning to parallel path a Heloc with them bc of their 90% LTV offerings. 

It is a 30 years investment not 3 years.There is a bubble for sure, but when you invest in a house for 10-20+ years, who cares.Real estate goes up goes down goes up again..... it is same in every country.

This is the gap any serious investor should address in Kenya and other African countries.

At the time, I was out of the country and was keen to get it rented.

I am currently residing in Bulgaria, Varna, a mid-sized city on the Black Sea coast (500 thousand people, third by size in the country).My goal is to buy an apartment to rent.

@Bryce Renicker - I think you are definitely on the right path, definitely, don't get discouraged!
