The host, Mike Jake, owned up to 150 SFH's in Colorado Springs at one point and grew his business from scratch by finding off-market opportunities and implementing several creative financing strategies. 

I'm looking at home equity loans for another rental property we own currently.More than likely, we'll have to put the property back on the market and find some cash to cover the difference between current construction draws and sale price.It's an expensive mistake - but we'll be back again to fight another day. 

There are no laws, rules or regulations preventing any foreigner, American or otherwise, to buy property in CDMX or Mexico for that matter.If, by having success, you mean getting a profitable investment, I'm sure many American and other investors got that over the last few years (I personally haven't since I've focused my efforts on Mexico's beach markets, which are far better in my opinion.

prior to rent control, I got rid of my poor tenants by raising their rents above market rent.  

3 quality tenants in place paying just shy of fair market value. 1 vacant turnkey unit. 

It needed better marketing.

Anything $2500 or below can be deductible via de minimis safe harbor.Higher expenses need to be capitalized.You can also do a Cost Segragation Study to capitalize some items quicker based on life expectancy. 

I love this market for its cash flow potential.
