Out of country Investors

Hi everyone!

My partner and I are from Asia and we are into REI in the US. Being out-of-country, we face multiple challenges like not being able to drive-by to check out foreclosures, no "driving for dollars", no physical monitoring of maintenance work, not being able to sign mortgage loan forms without a notary (which is expensive), having no credit score and hence making it difficult to take any loans, checking the neighborhood out physically at different times of the day, etc... But over the past 2 years we have worked our way around multiple of these challenges and are open to share our stories. We are looking to connect with other out-of-country investors, for networking and sharing of lessons :) Feel free to leave a reply here or PM me! Stay safe everyone, no matter where you are in the world!

Cheers,
Trace

I'm from Singapore, currently investing in Columbus OH, and looking to expand in OH first (e.g. Lake County, Warren County, Lorain County...) But we are also looking at MI and IN to expand out of OH. What about you?

 Columbus is definitely a great place to invest in! Let me know if you ever need an extra boots on the ground guy!

    Hi @Trace P.,

    Are you living here in Singapore now? If so, join us at the monthly meetup tomorrow. 6:30 pm at Boomerang Rob Quay. Tables of five, of course. Shoot me your number and I’ll get you on our WhatsApp group. 

    I look forward to meeting you. 

    Thanks!


    Luke

    Just jumping in to vouch for @Trace P. and her partner Han. They are no flash in the pan investors; they're very serious about their goals, do their research, and offer tons of value to their network.

    Hello @Trace P.

    I'm not from out of the country, however, I do invest in Cleveland, OH, and see that you're in Columbus. Hope the Colombus market has been treating you well! If you're ever looking into Cleveland and have any questions please feel free to reach out.
