I am currently a second-year Finance student at the University of Florida with a minor in Economics and working towards a combined Masters degree in International Business.

I'm interested in exploring creative ways to convert my home into a long term rental and legal strategies to create an entity that could also own an international investment property. 

I used to be an international banker and, as part of my last job, I was lending tens of millions of dollars to Mexican banks on a regular basis.

I’m just jumping into this game and can’t even imagine going international, but mexico just seems like a smart place to start real estate investing!

Some will argue that if you buy in markets that don’t do mortgages, that the prices are more stable, which on the surface that appears true, but when the buying pool is primarily international investors with access to cheap credit in the states (until now), investors were able to get HELOC’s on their USA based properties to buy abroad with cash.

I am particularly interested in properties located within 1 hour of Southwest Florida International Airport and within 30 mins walking distance to the beach.

I have an international applicant this time around that has great references and her PhD letter from the school, but she has a collection.

In real estate, what determines if something is international or not is the residence, not the nationality.

I remember hearing someone on the news said that eventually Austin metro and SA metro will be connected, and San Marcos will be the ideal spot for a huge international airport.

I am happy to introduce to our internal Section 8 specialist if that would help, too.
