hi , saw this post and want to jump in.In my eyes, and I have been investing in US real estate for years now - most American real estate brokers and agents are providing great service to out if state / out if country investors.After you define what you want to buy and where, start communicating with local real estate agents. they can be found everywhere online including here at BPhope that helps

This pursuit has been incredibly fulfilling, engaging and eye-opening; significant relationships have been established and I've even acquired properties for myself along the way. 

Right now, we have our eye on rental property investing, particularly multi-family (probably tri-plex or four-plex), but we're still trying to learn all the possible avenues of real estate investment.I'm currently neck deep in learning the details of financial analysis of potential rental investment properties, and would love some suggestions on the best place to ask questions on this topic (the Buying & Selling Real Estate Discussion forum?).

I am interested primarily in small multi-family buy-and-hold properties (duplex, tri- and quad rentals), with an eye towards larger multi-family and maybe commercial in the future.At this point, I am looking to network with other investors, lenders, and people who are generally knowledgeable and successful in the Houston area.

Trench was definitely a validation to what I was beginning to do and really opened my eyes up to areas I could improve my spending habits.
