Investing from Overseas

Ever since the onset of COVID, I have become fiercely interested in personal finance and then specifically in investing in real estate.  I do have one major hurdle, I live overseas (active-duty military).  Not looking to re-invent the wheel, I have seen of few other posts of others who have accomplished this feat.  I would like to see if those have any big pieces of wisdom or pitfalls to avoid as I look to buy a rental property via video chat.  

Currently, I'm looking at small multi-family properties in the same town as my parents in the mid-west, where I grew up. I figure I should still have some connections there and I am more familiar with that market than the other places I've been.  I haven't bought a home before but I'm doing my best to learn as much as I can.  Hopefully, I can make my first deal happen before the end of the year!
