How can international investors get funding in the US?

[Geraldine Veiman]

Our family resides in Guatemala and we are interested in investing in real estate in the US. I have the advantage of being a US citizen, but I´m unemployed; my husband, who provides the income for the family and could properly apply for a loan, is guatemalan. Any suggestions as to how we may apply for funding, in order to invest in real estate in the US? Which companies do you recommend which offer this service to international investors? Thanks for your help
