Hey just seeing if any real estate investors in Okinawa are interested in meeting up to talk real estate. I am about to close on my first rental property in the states, so I am pretty excited and want to bounce investment strategies off of someone.
Hi @Carl Mccrory, good to meet you. Congratulations on your first closing in the States. Since you mentioned rental property, and since you are in Japan, just wondering if you have considered buying investment property in Japan, and if not, I'd be interested to know your reasons. While property is more likely to appreciate in the U.S., unlike Japan, unless you are looking at Tokyo, the yield is so much higher in Japan, and so much more affordable ($25K to $55k for 7% to 12% yield, net pre-tax). I look forward to your feedback.
Carl Mccrory , Saul Gomez , Adam Treece I'm in Oki as well. Are there any REI meetings here? Just starting to get my feet wet and trying to learn and connect.
Nikita Tippins yes we have recently just started meetings. The next one will be on 10 Nov @ the Starbucks in the rycom mall. Would love to see you out there.
I'm in Okinawa as well! Hope to see you all on November 10th! Please join the REI Okinawa FB page if you have not already.
