Investing in international real estate. Sounds kind of scary, right?

Today's guest is here to share his incredible story on purchasing multiple properties in Mexico, while living in the U.S.

Patrick from Frugal Safari is a business owner, seasoned real estate investor (both the good parts and the not-so-good parts), a FIRE enthusiast, and a genuinely fascinating guy. He's from Rwanda, grew up in Belgium, has traveled extensively, has a roller coaster real estate investing journey, and a kinda weird but totally amazing company he runs.

There's a TON of really fun stuff in this episode, including:

tips (and definitely warnings) about investing internationally

Patrick's entrepreneurship background

How he slashed monthly expenses from $6k to $2.8k (!)

How he bought 4 properties in Phoenix at the same time (then promptly lost them all in the market crash)

Patrick is a really, really intriguing guy, and has a ton of wisdom to offer, especially through his stories! He has great stories.

Enjoy :)
