Don,Sorry about the delay in replying. I dont get on here as often as i should these days. I used to get the e-mail sent to my e-mail address when a new post is put on but since the forum has been updated, I dont get the automatic e-mails anymore.Anyway as for time frames on this deal. It took about a month to close Don. There was a bit of mucking…[Read more]

JJ&JOThe best way to get out is to probably sell it through a good agent. I am doing so with mine at the moment also.Did you pay retail for your properties? Depending on there condition and how long ago you purchased them will all depend on what you can get for them.Also you have a better chance of finding an owner occupier at retail prices if its…[Read more]

Caroline and Craig,

If you have a SSN you will be at an advantage when it comes to lending in the United States.

In reference to lending, if you do not want to verify income, in most cases, if you put down a 30% deposit it eliminates the problem.
A good broker in the United States will be able to advise you on your options in regards to…[Read more]

Guys,

Nigel is correct, you do need to have an understanding of the market or be working with people that do.

Right now Texas is one of the best markets to be in for both capital growth and if you buy wholesale then you can expect reasonable cash flow as well. You do need to buy correctly though.” Its all in the buy guys”. That’s where the…[Read more]

Hi Josh,

The best research you can do for yourself is to jump on a plane and go and see it for yourself.

The returns are only as good as the people you are dealing with. I know people making great returns and also know of situations were people have been burnt in the very same market.

So dont take it lighly, make no mistake about it, its very…[Read more]

Hey Arvid,

World changer offered some good advice.
May I also add there are risks involved and you can get burnt if you are not careful.

Also are you a property investor already in Australia. For what it is worth I don’t think new investors should consider investing abroad.

I think you need to have had some hands on experience in your own…[Read more]

Hey Luke,

Happy New Year to you mate.I hope 2007 brings you huge success and happiness.

In reference to brokers and getting loans approved, it’s hard to find a good broker who is willing to put in the effort on foreign national lending.

Ben is certainly one of them. I have not yet done a loan through him myself but do intend to give him a go…[Read more]

In my own opinion, yes there is definitely a down turn in the U.S property market at present, however there are still good opportunities, especially down South.
According to FORTUNE, The housing market looks healthy down South for 2007.

I have mentioned previously on this forum of the RIO GRANDE VALLEY – South Texas. I purchased 2 properties…[Read more]

Oli,

The U.S certainly does provide the opportunity for good yields and capital growth however you do need to do your homework.

Texas is one of the hottest markets in the U.S at the moment so that is a possible starting point for you.

In any real estate market where projections of a strong economy, high appreciation you can expect plenty of interest from investors. Especially in an Economy where house prices have soured and in many cases have dropped in value.

Good work Nigel. I couldnt agree with you more that Education is the key. Good on you for providing an educational service.

Like yourself our U.S based tours are also Educational Tours to show people the market and where to invest and not to invest. It’s important for people to see it for themselves because it is quite different than Australia as…[Read more]
