There is no pre-determined property type to chase after; only buy properties that attract reliable tenants.

Dog crap attracts rats .

@Basit SiddiqiYes, Spain is generally more attractive than the UK for most people, among other things for the reasons you mentioned and also properties are much cheaper generally speaking.I haven't tried to get a mortgage in the UK but I highly suspect it's actually easier for a foreigner to get one in Spain, where it's actually quite easy, provided that you're creditworthy of course.

(unless I'm ignorant about this)This is an excellent plan, as long as the property remains attractive.

I’m looking to raise the balance ($400k–$800k more) and am exploring the best structure and sources.What’s the best way to attract equity partners for a deal like this?

I invest in the Midwest, but these strategies for attracting student tenants work in most markets.

Solid B class is great, something that will attract solid long term tennants.

Are you drawn to countries with expected market growth, attractive returns, ease of entry, favorable tax policies, or perhaps personal connections?

Our budget is around $100-150K, and the goal is for the STR income to cover the mortgage.Based on the numbers I’ve run, Shenandoah feels like the safer option since it attracts visitors year round, but I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Rarely any specialty properties unless the metrics are extremely attractive.- Your direct security would be in the form of a "collateral assignment" that is recorded against the APN and basically puts a lien against the deed of trust that we are the beneficiary of.
