Hello All,I'll be bringing on an intern for the summer.

I have ran deals of every imaginable kind, including involving internationally located persons, crazy messed up deals of every imaginable sort, Ancona is the gold-standard for investors in title/closing agency for a reason.

For instance, within real estate you can diversify across geographies (domestic vs. international), product types (office vs. residential) and strategy (acquisitions vs. development).Institutional capital is by no means an expert in all of these various domains, so they partner with professional investment managers who specialize in specific sectors and strategies.

I am seeing legislation all over the country, but especially on the coasts, of government restricting the ability of housing providers to screen tenants, do credit checks, etc.  

There are curative planning opportunities in this area, the most basic of which is for a non-resident alien (as it relates to the US) to hold their interest in US real estate through a US LLC that has made the election to be taxed as a C Corp.Investing across international borders creates regulatory and tax compliance obligations that should one should not attempt to DIY. 

Bigger Pockets does have an "International" forum where a lot of Canadians hang out.

Not everyone has a cell phone and if people are traveling from other countries, they may not have an international cell plan. 

I think everyone agrees you don't want to be psychologically trapped in a life with no internal value.
