Topic Title: Mission Impossible?

First Post:

Hi,

I have a few questions I would like to ask you guys. Hopefully you will be able to help me. To begin with I am not from the States and I live in Europe.
I have some experience with real estate, but not too substancial. Lately I have been researching online and it looks like a great time to invest in the U.S. real estate market if you have cash. Well, me and my partners do.
A lot of people are making money of flipping houses because there is a vast amount of great deals you can find out there right now. Even if the prices go down further, it is easier to find an investment with great cashflow than ever before.
This all sounds great, but how can I get a peace of the action, is there a way or am I just dreaming? Is the distance too much of a barrier? Is this a "Mission Impossible".
Obviously I could find a real estate agent to help me out. But I would have to be lucky to find a good and honest one.
Letīs say I would find a great property with great potential, but I would have to fix it up a little, how would I go about that?
Could I find a partner to work with in the States, if so, how?
Do you guys think this is possible considering that I donīt live in the U.S.

Hope to hear from you
