Problems cost more not only in money, but mental stress.As far as foreign investors, I don't see anything specific on the horizon that would negatively affect the UK.

The mental adjustment it took to be able to take a risk and step outside my comfort zone was rough at first.

I have held true to the debt free mentality for several years, and it has worked great for me.  

I think wrapping my head around the financing methods that are readily available and reproducible will help me scale mentally and practically though.

The problem is, a property manager will never have an “owner’s mentality.”

Its mental out here.

I don't hate my job at all, I'm very lucky that my job is creative and not boring or anything, but I still have to answer to someone everyday, and I would like to be free of someone over my shoulder and being around the rat race mentality, and I figure since I'm young it'd be good to get a head start in making changes to take control of where my life is headed. 

I got my first deal 10 mins away then my second deal 25 mins away and then 2 more deals 1 hour and 30 mins away. the last one has given me the tools to mentally invest out of state having my A team on the ground to help me manage the properties when I am not too close.

Credit Union (since I'm faculty there) and they turned their nose up at me because I have all of these rental property mortgages under my name.

I also keep active in some of the local community organizations in the Collinwood and Euclid neighborhoods and can attest to the strong ownership mentality of the people living in the 44119.
