@Merkourios Moschovis Well maybe we can start something or look into what's already around.

Starting a new high-end residential spec project. 

Half the battle is starting.

I confirmed that with the lender before starting the process though to make sure.

Traditionally, I get re-pricing the loan per current market rates but charging me since we didn't close in 30 days since start doesn't seem right since the lender definitely had some lagging parts on their end and an insane due diligence process. 

Since the start of the year the Sale Price vs List Price has swung up to 0% and has not surpassed on average.

Does anyone have any advice on where I should start?

@Chris Seveney If you invest certain countries like in Mexico, the properties you'll invest in will most likely be will be traded in USD so no currency risk there.

That's awesome you got started here. 

Quote from @Heather Rummel: You can manage it on your own, but it takes a lot of work to educate yourself, particularly in the most heavily regulated corner of the world.I would start by calling around to property managers in the area for help.
