Foreign national financing for buyers investing in U.S. real estate

TopOne Mortgage works with foreign-national borrowers who want to purchase property in the U.S. using international assets, alternative credit references, and investor-friendly ownership structures.

Foreign national loans are designed for non-resident, non-U.S. citizen borrowers who want to buy or invest in U.S. property. They can be especially useful when a borrower has substantial global assets but limited U.S. income history or credit.

Documentation

Can use international credit reports, bank references, asset verification, and passport-based documentation.

Down payment

Often ranges from 25 to 35 percent depending on property use, loan size, and reserves.

Ownership

Some programs allow title in an LLC, corporation, or trust.

Property types

Often available for one- to four-unit properties, condos, and many investment scenarios.
