"Diversifying Into Overseas Real Estate
Here’s the point: In the current global financial climate, overseas real estate is both the smartest and the sexiest way to invest your money. It’s a key strategy for diversification at a time when diversification is not a sound investment approach but critical to survival.
The very good news is that you can get started investing in real estate overseas with even a very modest capital budget. Lief began his career with US$5,000. I know current opportunities to get started with as little as US$1,000.
Furthermore, the objective goes well beyond making money. Yes, you can make money this way… over time, a great deal of money. But a global property portfolio or even a single property purchase in another country can be about way more than racking up profits.
At a time when it can seem like the world is spinning out of control, you’ll be putting yourself firmly in the driver’s seat of your and your family’s financial future. You’ll be positioned for profits in the immediate term (in the form of rental yields), in the mid-term (in the form of capital appreciation), and over the very long haul, building a legacy of wealth that can be enjoyed not only by you but also by your heirs.
And, all the while, purchase by purchase, you’ll be reinventing your life." Kathleen Peddicord of Live and Invest Overseas
