Global Property Gold Rush Profits Made Easy

“Welcome to Panama and welcome to Lief Simon’s Third Annual Global Property Summit…”

So I began bright and early this sunny Panama morning in the meeting rooms of Panama City’s Marriott Hotel.

“I’ve been scouting foreign property markets for more than 30 years… since 1985,” I continued for all assembled.

“I made my first foreign property investment in the mid-1990s on the Pacific coast of Nicaragua,” I told the group. “In the years since I’ve invested in 23 countries.”

I carried on providing background and context for the discussions to follow over the coming three days.

I explained, for example, how, about 18 years ago, I met Lief Simon on a property scouting tour in Ireland… how we were married four-and-a-half months after we met… and how we have been scouting and investing in foreign property markets together ever since.

Lief began his property investing career in Chicago, where he made 1,800% on his first investment in two-and-a-half years. (No, that’s not a typo. It’s the upside of leverage.)

In the 20 years since, Lief has built a multi-million-dollar property portfolio that includes rentals, land for land-banking, land for development, and agriculture.

In other words, Lief and I have been doing this a long time, investing through many market cycles, good and bad.

Bringing that perspective and experience to bear, I made this prediction for the group assembled with us in Panama City this morning:

We are at the start of what will be remembered as a Golden Age of Global Property Investing… a time when a great deal of money will be made by people paying attention and taking action.

The abundance of current opportunities is a result of growing demand—both foreign, from foreign investors big and small, and local, from fast-growing middle classes in key markets…

The abundance of opportunity is a result of crisis… in markets amidst or post dramatically troubled times…

And it is a result of sensational currency movements. If you’re an investor with U.S. dollars to spend, you have more buying power right now in some markets than you’ve had in years or decades. In Colombia, for example, costs today are half what they were seven years ago in U.S. dollar terms. In Brazil, prices are now 57% lower than they were just a few years ago.

In euroland, your dollars go farther than they have in 13 years.

Diversification is a key benefit of buying a piece of real estate in another country. The need for diversification is greater today than it’s ever been in our lifetimes.

Where and what, specifically, should you consider buying? Over the coming three days, we’ll be showcasing 13 turnkey opportunities—that is, 13 property investment opportunities in markets of particular interest that require little or no work or management on your part.

Including:

Turnkey Opportunity #1: Organic Agriculture In Panama

  • Eco-friendly investment
  • Minimum investment of US$38,500
  • Annualized returns of 17%

Turnkey Opportunity #2: Beachfront In Brazil

  • True beachfront (that is, on the sand) lots, which are harder and harder to come by
  • Value priced starting at US$50,000

Turnkey Opportunity #3: Timber In Colombia

  • Timber should be part of every property portfolio
  • 15%+ annualized returns over 12 years
  • Emerging industry of focus in Colombia

Turnkey Opportunity #4: Beach Rentals On Mexico’s Caribbean Coast

  • Resort beach community in a market with growing rental demand
  • Path-of-progress meaning potential capital appreciation

Turnkey Opportunity #5: 100% Turnkey Rentals In France And Scotland

  • Double-digit annualized yields
  • Invest with as little as US$24,000

Turnkey Opportunity #6: High-End Resort Rentals On Ambergris Caye, Belize

  • Own a unit in a Caribbean beachfront hotel
  • Excellent yields plus personal usage
  • Financing possible

In all, we’re looking closely at dozens of current specific opportunities to invest in Argentina, Portugal, Belize, Istanbul, Nicaragua, Panama, Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, France, the U.K., and beyond.

More from the scene tomorrow.

Kathleen Peddicord has covered the live, retire, and do business overseas beat for more than 30 years and is considered the world's foremost authority on these subjects. She has traveled to more than 75 countries, invested in real estate in 21, established businesses in 7, renovated historic properties in 6, and educated her children in 4.

Kathleen has moved children, staff, enterprises, household goods, and pets across three continents, from the East Coast of the United States to Waterford, Ireland... then to Paris, France... next to Panama City, where she has based her Live and Invest Overseas business. Most recently, Kathleen and her husband Lief Simon are dividing their time between Panama and Paris.

Kathleen was a partner with Agora Publishing’s International Living group for 23 years. In that capacity, she opened her first office overseas, in Waterford, Ireland, where she managed a staff of up to 30 employees for more than 10 years. Kathleen also opened, staffed, and operated International Living publishing and real estate marketing offices in Panama City, Panama; Granada, Nicaragua; Roatan, Honduras; San Miguel de Allende, Mexico; Quito, Ecuador; and Paris, France.

Kathleen moved on from her role with Agora in 2007 and launched her Live and Invest Overseas group in 2008. In the years since, she has built Live and Invest Overseas into a successful, recognized, and respected multi-million-dollar business that employs a staff of 35 in Panama City and dozens of writers and other resources around the world.

Kathleen has been quoted by The New York Times, Money magazine, MSNBC, Yahoo Finance, the AARP, and beyond. She has appeared often on radio and television (including Bloomberg and CNBC) and speaks regularly on topics to do with living, retiring, investing, and doing business around the world.

In addition to her own daily e-letter, the Overseas Opportunity Letter, with a circulation of more than 300,000 readers, Kathleen writes regularly for U.S. News & World Report and Forbes.

Her newest book, "How to Retire Overseas: Everything You Need to Know to Live Well (for Less) Abroad," published by Penguin Random House, is the culmination of decades of personal experience living and investing around the world.
