How foreign national loans work

Three steps from foreign passport to funded US investment property

Foreign national DSCR loans qualify on the property's rental income, not the borrower's income. That's why no US tax returns or US credit are required.

1

Property & passport

You identify the US investment property and provide your foreign passport, proof of funds (bank statements showing the down payment + reserves), and a credit reference from your home-country bank. No SSN, no W-2, no US tax returns.

2

DSCR underwriting

The lender qualifies the loan on the property's projected rental income divided by the proposed mortgage payment + taxes + insurance. Hit 1.0+ DSCR and you qualify standard. We have programs that price below 1.0 with stronger down payment.

3

Close from anywhere

You can close remotely using a US embassy / consulate notarization, an apostilled signature, or fly to the US for a 1-day closing trip. Most foreign borrowers prefer to fly in to tour the property and meet the team.

Why foreign nationals choose us

Foreign national loans aren't every lender's wheelhouse — they are ours

🌐

50+ wholesale lenders

Most US banks won't touch a foreign national loan. We've vetted the 8–10 wholesale lenders that genuinely program for foreign nationals and shop your file across all of them to find the best LTV/rate combination.

📝

No US credit needed

We accept foreign credit references in lieu of a US FICO score. A simple letter from your home-country bank stating account history and standing is usually enough. For Tier 1 countries (UK, Canada, Germany), we can pull foreign credit bureau reports.

🥇

Multilingual team

English, Spanish, Mandarin natively. Hindi, Portuguese, Tagalog via partners. We've closed deals with borrowers in 30+ countries — you won't be our first foreign national, regardless of where you live.

🔒

Remote closing

US embassy notarization, apostilled docs, or in-person 1-day closing trip. We handle the logistics so you can close from London, Mumbai, Sao Paulo, or Tokyo without flying twice.

🏢

LLC purchase OK

Most foreign national investors hold US property in a US LLC (Wyoming or Delaware) for asset protection and tax planning. Our loans accept LLC ownership at no extra cost. We can refer you to a US attorney for setup.

💸

Hard-asset focused

We qualify the deal on the property, not your country's economy or political risk. As long as the property cash flows and you have the down payment, your country of residence is essentially a paperwork detail.

Documentation

What you do (and don't) need

Foreign national loans require a different document set than US-resident DSCR loans. The good news: it's a shorter list.

What you need

  • Foreign passportMust be valid; copy of photo page
  • Proof of funds2–3 months of bank statements showing down payment + reserves available
  • Foreign credit referenceLetter from your home-country bank, or 3 alternative credit references (utility, landlord, mobile)
  • Visa or entry stampsShowing past US travel (helpful, not required)
  • US-based mailing addressProperty attorney, CPA, or property manager works
  • Wire of down payment from your accountFunds must come from a verifiable foreign bank account in your name

FAQ

Foreign national loans — common questions

Can a foreign national get a mortgage in the United States?
Yes. Foreign nationals can buy and finance US investment property without being US citizens, residents, or green card holders. The product is called a foreign national DSCR loan. It uses the property's rental income (not your income) for qualification, so no US tax returns, no US W-2s, and no SSN are required. Expect 25–35% down payment and rates roughly 1.0–1.5% higher than US-citizen DSCR pricing.
Do I need an ITIN to get a foreign national loan?
No. ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is helpful for filing US taxes on your rental income later, but it's not required at the loan application stage. We can close foreign national loans using only your foreign passport and proof of funds. Many borrowers apply for an ITIN after closing — we can refer you to a CPA who handles the application.
How much down payment do foreign nationals need?
Typically 25–35% depending on country of origin, property type, and DSCR ratio. Strong-credit foreign nationals from Tier 1 countries (Canada, UK, Germany, Australia, etc.) can hit 25% down at 75% LTV. Higher-risk countries or condotels may require 35–40% down. Cash-out refis cap at 65% LTV.
What documents do I need as a foreign national?
The essentials: valid foreign passport, proof of funds (2–3 months of bank statements showing the down payment + reserves), and foreign credit reference letter from your home-country bank (or 3 alternative credit references like utility, landlord, or mobile contract). Some lenders also accept a foreign credit bureau report (Schufa for Germany, Equifax Canada, etc.). What you DON'T need: US tax returns, SSN, US employment verification, green card, or US bank account.
Which countries do you lend to?
We have programs for borrowers from virtually every country that the US Treasury OFAC does not sanction. Most common: Canada, Mexico, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Brazil, Colombia, Argentina, Australia, China, India, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, UAE, and Saudi Arabia. We've also closed deals from less common origins — ask us. Countries under active sanctions (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, Venezuela government-linked entities) are excluded.
Can I close the loan from outside the United States?
Yes. You can close remotely using a US embassy or consulate notarization, an apostilled signature, or in many cases by flying to the US for a 1-day closing trip. Most foreign national borrowers prefer to fly in for closing because it lets them tour the property, meet the team, and open a US bank account — but it's not required.
Do I need to set up a US LLC to buy investment property?
Not required, but strongly recommended. Most foreign national investors hold US property in a US LLC (often a Wyoming or Delaware LLC for asset protection) for liability and tax efficiency reasons. We can refer you to a US attorney to set one up — typically takes 1–2 weeks. Our loans accept LLC ownership at no extra cost.
Can I get a foreign national loan for an Airbnb or short-term rental?
Yes. Foreign national STR DSCR loans are common — especially in Orlando, Miami, Las Vegas, and Park City. LTV caps at 65–70% for foreign national STR (vs 80% for US citizens), and rates run 1.0–1.5% above standard foreign national rates. See our Airbnb loans page for more on STR programs.
How long does it take to close a foreign national loan?
30–45 days typical. Longer than a domestic DSCR (which closes in 14–21 days) because of international wire timing, embassy notarization scheduling, and the additional underwriting work on foreign documentation. We've closed faster — in 21 days for a UK borrower — but plan for 30–45 to be safe.
Will the lender wire mortgage payments to a foreign account?
No — mortgage payments must be made from a US bank account in either your personal name, your LLC, or your property manager's trust account. Most foreign borrowers either open a US bank account when they fly in for closing, or have their US property manager handle the monthly mortgage payment from rental proceeds. We can refer you to US-friendly banks for foreign nationals.
