International Investing

Victor Menasce
About this episode

On today's show we are talking about international investing. Real estate investing is a hyper local business. But that doesn’t mean you have to live near your investments. Live where you want to live and invest where the numbers make sense.


There are many people who live in the North East of the US and only invest in Texas or Florida for example. In our company we are active in several states across the US and we are also active in Canada.

We build what we think is the right product for a given location based on supply and demand and the financial metrics for that specific location. These are almost always special situations. These are special situations in the sense that it is a unique combination of circumstances that creates the inefficiency in the market and leaves behind what we believe is a glaring opportunity.

Now I need to be clear, we are not scouring the market for opportunities. With very few exceptions, these have all come to us unsolicited. 

It doesn’t matter if the project is in Colorado or Florida or Utah or Canada.

I’d like to invite you to attend an upcoming webinar on Tuesday evening to learn more about a new project in Ottawa Canada.

Today’s episode is not a solicitation for investment. The opportunity is open to accredited investors residing in the US and will be by prospectus only in compliance with US securities regulations.
