Large Down Payment but....

[Eli Azulai]

Hi, Im looking to invest in a buy and hold properties in Florida. I previously invested in the UK with a buy to let type mortgage, with this type of mortgage as long as you had a good enough capital to loan ratio then you didn't need a separate income, is there such a thing in the US. I am a British citizen but my wife is from the US and we dont have a US income to be able to go the usual route. 

thanks
