Selling & Lending to foreign nationals

[Dave Godfrey]

Hi BP.

I have a client who is selling their house (conventionally, not as a rent-to-own or seller financed).  I was approached out the seller doing owner financing (thus becoming a lender) on a house in which the buyer would be a foreign national.  The buyer is out of country and intends to rent the house.   The buyer apparently has a very large down payment.  

Any thoughts on this?  Have any of you doing any similar deals? 

Thanks,

Dave
