The owner lives in Australia and she hasn't paid a single dime in fixing up anything after she bought it 10 years ago, so it at least feels like a case where the owner was cheap.

We invest in the US from our base here in Australia, so you can definitely do it!  

I am 22 years old and am currently travelling around Australia with my fiancé.

@Reece Gaynes is in Australia.

I was reading today's BP email article about the 12 year old investor in Australia who bought his first investment property.

(credit summary: 2 accts; #1 is authorized user [AU] acct, 12 yrs old, 35k line, $4k balance; #2 is new credit acct, 2 mos old, 8k line, $0 balance)If after reading #3 you think I'm building credit up from scratch in the US, you'd be right: got my dad to add me as AU to his 35k acct, then opened one of my own (the 8k line), and may open a third here in a month or so (AMEX transfer from Australia).  

Hi Everyone,I am really struggling with my next investment step and I was hoping to get some insight and opinion from other investors.I live in CA. already have a total of 3 investment properties all cash flowing quite well. two in other US states and one in Australia.

Just like Australia, barren but without Kangaroos.
