Obtaining a U.S. mortgage as a Canadian
Hey all, I’m looking to purchase a rental property in Cleveland, but I’m getting mixed messages about whether or not I would qualify for a mortgage because I’m Canadian. One broker told me I need a residency visa (but couldn’t actually tell me which visa to get), another said I couldn’t get a mortgage at all (since I don’t live in the U.S.). It would be great if someone could provide some clarification on the matter. Thanks in advance!
