The Big Picture on Geoarbitage Real Estate Investing: By earning in US dollars while living in lower-cost countries, investors can significantly reduce living expenses while maintaining or even growing their income. This strategy enables a higher quality of life at a fraction of the cost compared to the U.S. International real estate markets, such as those in Brazil and Colombia, offer affordable investment opportunities with strong potential for returns. Investors benefit from lower purchase prices, reduced construction costs, and the ability to charge rental rates in US dollars, boosting profitability. Investing in international real estate can provide more than just financial upside—it can also open doors to residency or citizenship programs, offering increased global mobility and a valuable “Plan B” for investors looking for long-term security and flexibility.

This approach leverages the financial advantage of earning in US dollars while living in countries with significantly lower costs of living.  By strategically choosing affordable destinations, investors can enjoy a higher quality of life at a fraction of the cost, all while maintaining or even growing their income streams. An Introduction to Geoarbitage Real Estate Investing I recently sat down with Tim Hubbard, international real estate investor and host of the Short-Term Rental Riches podcast, to dive into this concept. Tim, like myself, spends most of his year living in South America while continuing to earn US-based income. This blend of earning in a strong currency while living in a lower-cost country is known as currency arbitrage, and it can be a game changer for both personal finances and investment strategies. The beauty of geoarbitrage is that it allows you to unlock luxury living at an affordable price. For example, my own family currently lives in a three-bedroom apartment overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Lima, Peru — a stunning view that would be unaffordable in most US coastal cities.  Yet, thanks to the lower cost of living in Peru, our rent is only about $1,300 per month — a fraction of what a comparable property would cost in the United States.
