I'm planning on being in a position to do a little investing in the next few months(read start of next year) and from my research, I'm leaning towards getting into the US property market before it starts recovering too much.

I'm currently investigating a Hunter Based company www.buyingusarealestate.com.au
About proceeding further.

Does anyone have any properties or experience in overseas property Investing, specifically the US?

What are some other investing strategies you guys use to supplement your salaries or maybe even provide all your income?
