The purpose of this forum is to discuss property markets. If you are interested in buying property in Japan or the Philippines, you need an information guide. Its different buying property outside your home market. You are dealing with a lot of unfamilar issues that is going to affect your compass. If you grasp the risks then it can be very rewarding and amazingly cheap. There are 2 markets where I have bought properties, though I am sure there are other opportunities. I have some interest in Ecuador and Eastern Europe. But for now I am offering 2 reports on: 1. Japan Foreclosed Property 2008 -see 2. Buying Philippines Property 2008 - this report is far more comprehensive, covering the private and foreclosed markets.
