This would probably be an unpopular post.
For several months I searched and tested people who introduced themselves as entrepreneurs or realtors for Israelis in real estate transactions in the United States.
Among them I found a special type of people who live in Israel (at all) never lived (really never lived) in the area where they supposedly work. They have "connections" with brokers, intermediaries, management companies and renovation workers, etc. and take responsibility for other people's money.
I have found those who have more knowledge and also those who, as someone who has not sold anything to anyone there, can teach you.
I am not claiming that these people are aware of the degree of risk they are endangering others' money, but I think they should think about it. And what I mean here is to shake them up a bit.
Examples:
1. The first property I bought was with the help of someone who lives in the city itself, he offered me a property that is not considered the best area in the various sites. But since he lives there he knew to tell me that the area was going to be the next thing. He had no data but he knew! Later, a large art school was built not far away and the area burst. The man is a childhood acquaintance of a friend of mine for many years so I knew I could accept his words. And he was right! Today the area is on fire!
Could anyone sitting in front of his computer in the Holy Land have known this?
2. In a certain city Amazon was about to set up large warehouses, it did not know that Basilu could be found. People who live there have such knowledge.
And these are really notable examples. There is also a lot of other information that you can only know if you really live there and are interested in real estate there.
I came to write the above because I have now met someone who sits with slippers at the computer in the country and without a clue I started in a place and area that markets "good properties" to people.
Gentlemen, it's money from people you have no idea what it takes to create it. So please risk your money only.
Thanks.

I'll write this for you in simple words: I have lived in Florida for 22 years… Engaged in real estate as a licensed agent in the largest private real estate firm in the US (we are not franchisees) one day and many more years…. Until about 3 months ago I was quite active (even very active) on a page here and a few more pages in style - and I left. I just hung up! I have seen and experienced everything you describe unanimously one by one! If only I could reveal the details of “real estate victims” in the area I operate here (South Florida) then I would sit down and upload a series of 60 episodes and 4 seasons…. , This site is also full of crooks! I do not understand and I tried, believe me I tried !! Many times I tried !! To understand where all of them came from: investor advisers, investor advisers, investor supporters, bank account openers..Every seventh Israeli who knows 3 dreamers in aspemia becomes an expert investor advisor. ????…. Just as virtual sex is big shit - this is not how remote real estate is done. Those who really want to jump into the water buy a plane ticket and come to breathe the air of the place. And here I will stop.
Really do not agree. I have been living in Canada for the past year and a half I have not been in the country and have bought two great properties in great places all through learning from the internet. I'm sure that thanks to my experience I know how to find things that brokers with years of experience do not see.
Welcome to the world of "it will be all right"
I am a real estate entrepreneur for over 14 years with a brokerage license in Colorado and see this post Alive every day and do not understand how people do not check everything you mentioned especially in transactions like this (which I believe are among the biggest transactions of their lives
Israbluff! There is no shortage of shit.
Need to talk to a lot of agents, asset managers, local investors to know what is right and what is not ..
There is justice in what you say and there is no doubt that there is no one like the locals who know the area in depth, are connected to the community, to future plans as those who live the area, pass on the way to the empty areas and see development signs when picking up children from school, talking to other parents There is no substitute for it, just as there is no substitute for chemistry between people. It all starts and ends with that.
At the same time, there are also serious Israeli companies, with local partners that do a good job when they are on the line between the countries with an efficient and correct operation.
When I first started and heard from Israel from afar, even before we moved to the US and by the very nature of being Polish by nature, I also lacked the added value and the local point of view. Even then I was told all sorts:
"There is nothing to worry about, you are neither the first nor the last. We know and have taken care of a lot already. Some customers have already bought 3-4 units from us, why do you think too much about one unit? ”
For me these are background noises, I insisted on seeing the area for myself and it was good that way. The responsibility is the buyer's, we often have to make consumer decisions, from shopping at the supermarket, home furniture, etc.
People are trying to sell and there is no such thing as 100% objective. Everyone is emotionally invested in one way or another.
Successfully.

Wow !!!! I just came to upload a similar post on this topic ???????????????? Excellent that you wrote
I'm not looking for information about Amazon warehouses and art museums in Zilo….
Even new things that are going to be in my city I sometimes find only from the city website or from a local, as well as about the places I invest in the US (with slippers, from the living room)
So right!
There are so many “armchair marketers” who sell deals to investors when some were not even in the United States ????.
There are those who invest a little more, fly twice a year, get photographed nicely and end up leaving a trail of wounded behind.
Occasionally you see one or another complaint post about the same marketers but these posts quickly disappear due to threats in lawsuits.
Unpleasant but that's the situation.
Well said
very true. I really wondered how this issue has not come up to this day.
Investing in the US through Israeli companies is a recipe for disaster. This is my personal opinion
(There is no problem in an American company managing Israelis, but on the condition that the company lives and breathes the market area and does not make discounts on a remote control)
I recommend everyone to read before they listen to all kinds of course owners that what interests them most is to take your money…

Thank you! Great post!
You will not believe the ease with which those charlatans take money, people's life savings and act as small businessmen for a few thousand dollars… Madness!
