Let’s talk about cheap real estate. Whenever we talk about ultra-cheap properties in countries like Georgia, Cambodia, Armenia or Egypt, people often ask why they shouldn’t just buy properties for the same cost in countries like Italy or Spain instead.

The assumptions you made and the lessons you learned twenty years ago are long out of date. Think I’m wrong? Think back to 1996. In the infancy of the internet, three of the top websites on the internet were AOL, Yahoo, and Netscape. Fast forward to the year 2020 and each of those top websites […]

Dateline: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Four years ago, I was sitting at a cafe after meeting an attorney. Over the next four years, this attorney would become one of the best in my network as well as a good friend. I had met with him about buying Georgia real estate, and he referred me to a […]
Dateline: Tbilisi, Georgia It seems that everyone wants to know which country is “the best” for real estate investing these days.

Dateline: Valencia, Spain I’ve been in Spain for the past several weeks. It’s one of the first times in months I’ve spent time in the western “developed” world.

Dateline: Barcelona, Spain Here’s a reality check: all investments carry some risk. Whether you’re in your home country or traveling the world to find investment opportunities, there is always risk.

As many of you know, I’m not a big fan of real estate in the US. However, my opinion has softened recently as I recognize that it may be a good choice for some. If you’re a US citizen, you’re already filing and paying taxes, so if you find a really cheap investment property, you […]

In December 2014, the United States and Cuba shocked the world by agreeing to begin partially normalising relations.

What will Mauricio Macri’s election mean for Latin America? Argentina holds the dubious distinction of being the only first world country to BECOME a third world country in modern history.

While most of Europe is facing an economic crisis, from Spain’s youth unemployment rate of around 50%, to the collapse of the Russian Ruble, Poland is one of the very few countries on the continent that actually has good prospects. There’s no such thing as a “recession-proof” country, but Poland is about as close as […]
Colombia is seen by many as a lawless, dangerous place filled with drug cartels and violent crime – but while the country was the playground of Pablo Escobar during the 1970s through the 1980s, this couldn’t be any further from the truth in today’s world. Because of this common misconception, property buyers in Colombia have […]

Dateline: San Marino As of today, I’ve now been to all five of Europe’s so-called “micro-states”: tiny sovereign countries ranging from 0.3 to 62 square miles in size.

China’s economy grew 7.4% during 2014 and is still expected to grow at least 5% in 2015.

China’s economy still outpaces that of most other countries, meaning there are still a lot […]
Dateline: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia For years, land sales from the white minority to the black majority in South Africa have been governed by a “willing buyer, willing seller” approach.
