Does anyone have a source for Foreign National Funding?
I have Canadian client's in need. No hard money!!!


Commercial Loan Officer


While most foreign nationals can't obtain financing, there are options for Canadians.

Off the top of my head, your client can try HSBC, RBC, Washington Federal, and Florida Home Trust.

Some of those lenders only offer financing to FNs on the retail side, so you may get shot down if you're looking to broker the loan.


Real Estate Investor · Winter Haven, Florida


Thank's Darryl, these deals are full turnkey with tenant in place, all retail. I checked with RBC, they dropped their over the border funding for US properties but will check the others. I am dealing direct with clients and could use a foreign national broker if possible. Any suggestions would be much appreciated...


Commercial Loan Officer


Foreign national financing is definitely a moving target that one needs to constantly monitor.

Check with the other lenders and if you find one who can help your client then you can refer them to over to start the loan process.

You may also want to give Helm Bank a call.


Real Estate Investor · Winter Haven, Florida


Darryl, I will check all of these leads out and get back in touch. I have more client's than I can handle at this moment. If you think of any other lending sources for foreign nationals please let me know...

Real Estate Investor · Winter Haven, Florida


Brian, what is the minimum loan for both bank and private? Length of time to close, any prepayment penalties, will both parties lend on investment properties and how many per client?



The minimum loan amount is 50K.
The time to close on a private deal is usually 1-2 weeks and a bank deal 2-3 weeks.
As for the amount of loans they will finance it is determined by if they are trying to finance them all at the same time or not.

Hello Brian
Does your investor charge any points? any upfront fees to you?


Banker · Minneapolis, Minnesota


Hi Glen,

I specialize in Foreign National Loans in addition to Fannie/Freddie/FHA/Jumbo Financing. My product allows up to 80% LTV and $3 Million Loan Amount. Rates are extremely competetive and there are no upfront costs aside from an appraisal.

I am currently offering these loans in MN, IA, SD, WA, OR, AL and will be offering them in CO, CA, FL. in the next 30-60 days. * Program will be made available in additional states if there is a serious interest/need. Please contact me for details.

Borrowers must be high net worth (good income, very strong reserves)

Loan amounts up to 3 million and LTV's up to 80%
No SSI or TIN number required.

This program is designed for professional immigrants entering the USA on an acceptable visa.

The program is also offered to US citizens living abroad working for a US based company, even if no credit score is present.

US citizens working for foreign companies may be considered on an exception basis if two years US tax returns have been filed showing the foreign earnings.

If no credit score is present or we have a false score, we will consider these clients as having a 740 credit score when qualifying and pricing.

We do not pull an international credit bureau.

Foreign assets are considered on a case by case basis for reserves and down payment.

We will qualify on "offer letter" / first paystub - Foreign nationals are not required to have 2 years of US based income

PLEASE NO MORTGAGE BROKER/LENDER INQUIRIES
