Smell that? It’s the ashes of last week’s dumpster fire of a debate still smoldering… and that stench won’t clear easy. In between all the mumbling, bumbling, and name-calling, came the squabbling over inflation, immigration, abortion, and the big stuff too, like the candidates’ prowess on the golf course and elsewhere… If a tornado hit [...]
The stage is set. Tonight, Trump and Biden face off in the first of two slated debates. Taxes look set to feature high on the agenda. Trump wants to extend all the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 provisions which are set to expire next year. Depending on who you listen to, that could [...]
When the King of Rock and Roll died in August 1977, his estate was valued at more than $10 million. Unfortunately, Elvis Presley’s will wound up going through probate, and it took three years for the lawyers to work things out in court. Finally, mercifully, the court ruled that the estate should pass to his [...]
There’s a lot of things about 2020 many of us would like to forget. The pandemic takes the top spot… but Trump v. Biden comes a close second. And now here we are again with the rerun most nobody wanted. Maybe you have no horse in this race, but chances are, you do. And while [...]
Why should you be looking beyond the United States for opportunity? I probably don’t need to go into all the problems America is facing these days. Unsustainable debt. Useless politicians. Everybody angry at everybody else. I started looking overseas for investment opportunities more than 30 years ago. I did it because I wanted new adventures, [...]
Yesterday I flew from Paris to Panama where later this week I’ll be joined by my global network of fellow real estate experts for this year’s International Property Summit. They’re coming from Mexico, Argentina, Belize, Cyprus, and beyond to share private property offerings worth at least $278,375 in cash savings and benefits across more than [...]
How should one hold property overseas? That’s a regular question at conferences… especially my International Property Summit event each year. The best option depends on the person, the property, and the country where the property is located… and even what funds you’re using for the investment. Use IRA funds and, generally speaking, you should set [...]
If you haven’t seen the first season of “Yellowstone” prequel, “1883”, take the time to watch it. It has a lot of good lessons. One key one is the value of things… or lack thereof as the case may be. As the Dutton family is crossing the U.S. with a wagon train, you see settlers [...]
We spend a lot of virtual ink lately reminding you of the benefits of owning property overseas... I tend to focus on the privacy, asset security, diversification, and tax upsides, in particular. But I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention what is arguably the biggest advantage. Property overseas is a much better bargain. Take a [...]
If you purchase a piece of real estate in another country, should you have the ownership documents issued in your name or, perhaps, in the name of a corporation? If a corporation, should it be a local company (formed in the jurisdiction where you’re purchasing) or one based somewhere else? I get these questions from [...]
