A link to FilePlace is at the bottom of every page, so it is easy to find.If you have technical issues, send an email to [email protected] and someone will help you.

It’s still up-and-coming, so there are some rough spots, but it could be a solid long-term play.

I provided them keys via a lockbox at the property, so I never met them in person throughout the tenant screening process or to get the keys to them.

Hi Pat,Thank you so much for your kind follow-up. 

Go to your local REIA and see if there are any subject matter experts in your area that teach classes or give presentations.Even when the statewide statutes are the same, they often get implemented in different ways locally, so the national courses tend to be just junk.If you are determined to spend money on a course see if you can buy off ebay or alibris or FB marketplace.Lots of misinformation on tax lien/deed investing.

If I have to form a team, how do I go about doing so?

You would need to ask contractors.You buy something already built and renovate, you get tenants in and start making money that much sooner.Yeah, so that's a great question!

(I don't drink coffee so I wouldn't have a clue) Especially from Boquete.  

On top of that insurance for the units went up and so did property taxes so what was once a very profitable commercial rental has turned into my worst performer.
