While this is a great and highly motivating goal, most people are either clueless or incorrect in their belief as to what is required to obtain this “lifestyle”.Understanding of the “how to” get there is further obscured by the misleading, and often patently false “pathways” sold by real estate educational MARKETING companies as workshops, upsold to association memberships, upsold to mentorships.

My husband and I purchased our first Costa Rica property last year and were advised by our agent that in almost 6 years of working in that market he had only ever seen 1 American Couple successfully obtain a mortgage in Costa Rica and it was from Scotia Bank. 

The third property has a nice cash flow.I am wondering if there are steps I can take to reduce the cashflow issues of the 2 properties before obtaining another property, like pay down the mortgages or should I just save the cashflow from the third property to pay for any future expenses?

I am a licensed realtor based in Atlanta, Georgia, and I am currently working on obtaining my mortgage origination license.

. $120k out of pocket money down to obtain the funds.Huuuh???

Leverage technology early and put everything in the cloud, so you can access info wherever you are.Make sure to get properly licensed and obtain E&O Insurance.

I am on a real estate journey to grow and obtain a potent Real Estate Portfolio.

Please do this first:  contact the local Housing Authority office in your market area and obtain the landlord package.

Did you lie to the mortgage co and produce a “bogus” lease in order to obtain financing?
