Hong Zhy - I have been in Baltimore all my life, 75 years now, I believe you need to be very careful when investing in the area around Hopkins and it would be wise to understand the market there - it is easy to be taken advantage of and over-paying for a property. 

Hi all real estate lovers,I am from one of the most expensive property city, Hong Kong.

@Richard Loniewski @Kevin Hardy @Daniel Kong thanks all.

@James Hong SFR, 1/2 duplex (one unit out of the two duplex).

Buenos Aires, Budapest, Prague, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, Santiago, Santo Domingo, Dublin, Panama City, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town and others are all getting an influx of expatriate investors, (in addition to the tried and true expat destinations, such as Paris, Rome and London.)

My credit score is over 800 and once I get my first house it’s on like donkey Kong!

Jimmy Hong That sounds fair in your situation.

@Jimmy Hong

Tell me if the commercial seller is in Hong Kong, that you won't work a call at 2am in the morning, or if they fly in and want to walk a property in the evening or at night to verify maintenance issues like lighting, tenant type, occupancy, parking, etc that you won't meet them there to do that.Timeframes...no stats to my thoughts, but I'm thinking wholesale deals, when you get a fish on the hook they wanted to sell 30-300 days ago, if they're motivated enough to sell at a 30-50% discount to market, then they should be super motivated.   

I will definitely put it to use.Jimmy Hong- Thanks!
