.: Quote from @Stephanie Medellin: PSA to any investors pursuing homes in default, especially where the owners still have equity: be aware of special rules within your state regarding contracts when the homeowner is in default. 

I'm currently in Medellin Colombia at the moment. 

@Daniel Medellin Regarding your question, it would depend on the lender or bank you're working with if you want to go that route in the future. 

-I booked a trip to Columbia with my girlfriend and we’ll be hanging out in Bogota and Medellin.

Quote from @Stephanie Medellin: Do you absolutely need cash out? 

@David To we looked at multiple latin countries to invest, Medellin and Bogota Colombia, Panama City, Panama, and Costa Rica.

I have a cousin who is living in Medellin for many years  and he recently moved many of his assets to Panama.

I am from North Carolina but manage my current rental arbitrage properties in Medellin, Colombia & Rio de Janeiro Brazil.Now, I am looking to start buying real estate - likely in the Raleigh/Durham area of North Carolina where I am from, but also open to new markets.I stretched myself very thin on my arbitrage business, so my cash is very low. 

I lived in Medellin and many expats were heading to these places. 

I am looking into doing some international real estate investing in places like the Philippines, Medellin, Columbia and maybe cayo Belize.
