This enables me to buy from Australia with confidence. My first trip to the US was in conjunction with a round the world holiday. My next trip in April is in my holidays and this trip will be a claimable tax deduction and it gives me…[Read more]

They sound very attractive but you must do your research and learn about them. I am sure Steve McKnight can point you in the right direction. I have bought tax liens in Arizona, some have redeemed and they do work but they are definitely NOT a quick get rich strategy. Every county is different and have…[Read more]

I have my own team on the ground, and I am still trying to buy more. I dont rush in and  I wait until I find a house that  fulfils all of my criteria. When I see a house I like, I speak to my realtor via skype and have a contract drawn up and submitted on the same…[Read more]

I have been looking in 33914, 33990 and 33991 in particular and I avoid well and septic homes and drywall, of course. What is the area called or zip code for South Fort Myers. I am keen to have a look at the area and what would you expect as an average price for a 3-2-2…[Read more]

It probably does'nt matter where you go in the US because there will be genuine bargains everywhere. There will be fabulous areas and then there will be the areas to avoid. You need to go where you have a genuine interest and can set…[Read more]

I have bought 2 properties this year, one in Fort Myers Shores and Cape Coral, 33990, and  I am actively looking for more. I have missed out on at least 20 properties all of which have sold on the same day as released in The Cape and Fort Myers. One property actually sold w…[Read more]
