Far along in my real estate investing career, I envision owning larger apartment/dorm complexes near universities with a high international student population, and making a business of facilitating the study and exploration of foreign students in the US.I look forward to meeting all of the BiggerPockets members in the Brevard County (Melbourne, Palm Bay, Titusville) area, and hope to learn the skills and confidence necessary to be successful in the business!

@Jason NatelleI would mention that there is another option - you can invest in non-turnkey options in different cities outside of your local area.99% of our clients (which are all international clients) follow that approach: they do not buy turnkey solutions often and they do not buy locally (as they are keen on investing in the US).

A management company helps you collect rent - you can do this electronically;  they manage repairs - as a new build these should be minimal, and you can build up your contractor connections before you depart.

There are no rules/regulations other than what the bank has established internally for reviewing offers.
