I would of bought as much as I could sooner in Australia before the banks would not touch me.

We have non stops to Australia, China, and Dubai. 

I was recently traveling abroad (Australia) for my day job and told some longtime friends of mine about the real estate investing I'm doing in the US.

Also note that there are many different legal structures to maximize these expenses.I don't know but imagine this is handled very similarly in Australia.

If there was a opportunity to invest in Australia (as an example) presenting exceptional returns, and you had the option of employing local specialists at low fee (property management, property inspection) would you still consider viewing in person?

Baosun has done projects in Australia and the UK so I imagine they could figure out how to appease the US codes too.... - Whoa!

(Btw - are you the same Colby Pool from our Australia trip?) 

Yes, Japan, Australia, and others now accept cryptocurrencies the data around them being used in day to day transactions is scant (if anyone has data to prove otherwise please share that would be interesting information).

I'm Lauren, from Australia and new to real estate in the USA.

We live and work in Melbourne, Australia, and have finally decided that we are ready to take the big leap and begin looking for our first rental property(s) and to start building our property portfolio.
