The MisEducation of the Foreign Real Estate Investor
You Can’t Win a Game You Don’t Know How to Play!
This isn’t just a book—it’s your warning label.
You’ve been sold the dream: dirt-cheap houses, stress-free rentals, and passive income from thousands of miles away.
But here’s what no one told you:
▪️ The unwritten rules of the streets that no spreadsheet explains.
▪️ The slick-talking middlemen who vanish after the wire clears.
▪️ The true cost of investing in communities you’ve never stepped foot in.
If you’re a foreign investor—or anyone buying in U.S. inner-city neighborhoods—
this book was written to protect you before it’s too late.

A Note from the Author
I wrote this book because I’ve seen too many investors—especially international buyers—walk blindly into U.S. real estate deals that looked good on paper but turned into financial and emotional disasters.
The Miseducation of the Foreign Real Estate Investor isn’t just for foreign investors—it’s for anyone investing in America’s urban, inner-city neighborhoods without fully understanding the people, the history, or the unspoken rules of the game.
I’ve lived in these communities. I’ve cleaned up the messes. And now, I’m committed to making sure you’re equipped with the truth, not just the sales pitch.
If you’re serious about making smart, ethical, and profitable investments in the U.S.—this book is your starting line.
