Complex Investment Situation

[KC Smith]

We are a US based company and we are exploring buying a facility in another country in order to reduce our costs.  Does anyone have suggestions on the right approach for securing the property outside of simply setting up a trust and using cash for everything.  We can't secure financing via the banks in the other country since we are not citizens and even holding property is tricky.  Maybe there are groups that do this type of thing?

Is it a common law or civil law jurisdiction? There are many international firms which have locally licensed attorneys.
