IVWorld's Top Cash Flow Markets—Where to Buy Whether You Have $50,000, $250,000, or $1 Million to Invest

After 64 property purchases over 30 years in 23 countries, we've found that it's possible to make a good property buy anywhere at any time if you look long and hard enough and have the experience and judgment to filter. However, on any particular day, it's easier to buy right in some places rather than others, and now and then we find a market where anyone could buy anything and profit.
