Lief Simon is the real estate investing and offshore diversification expert for Live And Invest Overseas, an organization dedicated to helping Americans diversify assets and retirement lifestyles overseas. Specifically, Lief's focus is residency, citizenship, banking, and inheritance rules for offshore assets.

Lief has lived and worked on 5 continents and traveled to more than 70 countries. His real estate investing experience began more than 25 years ago with a multi-unit building in Chicago.

Selling that building after owning it for two-and-a-half years, Lief diversified internationally. In the two-plus decades since, Lief has purchased more than 50 properties across 25 countries. He has more experience buying and profiting from real estate around the world than any other individual investor you're likely to find. He has developed land, managed residential and commercial rentals, and flipped pre-construction buys.

In addition, Lief has two decades of experience in offshore diversification, residency, citizenship, asset protection, and global tax mitigation. Over the last 25 years living and doing business around the world, he's built a network of reliable and expert contacts he trusts on such matters, including attorneys, bankers, tax consultants, and other advisors, both Stateside and in the jurisdictions where he spends time and money.
