People like to make things harder for themselves because they think some mysterious pixie dust will give them protection from Bigfoot and cannot answer the simple question“Why are you so concerned you need a LLC to own property over insurance”

Thanks.Most people set up a CRM at this point.

I see far to many people blinded by low prices on Zillow that expect to buy great assets for less than a Kia.

AND try to find a market where you do not have to compete as much with 2nd home demand - a place where people go to vacation but is not top of mind for a rich guy's vacation home destination (ski town, lake house, etc.).If you are asking for the secret market that returns 20% cash on cash without any renovation or difficulty, that doesn't exist.

So what the people who have answered may not realize is every states laws are different on this.

The rental has quite a bit but it's at a 2.875% rate that I wouldnt trade for this deal.

Outside of that you can look at crime rates, etc but having a boots on the ground or local expert would be the best benefit of where to look in a specific market.

I was fortunate to meet some phenomenal people in Orlando a few weeks back at BPCON23! 

@Bernardo CunhaI would guess there are less than 10 people on BiggerPockets who would invest overseas with someone.

40 is still young in a lot of peoples book.
