Mortgage/Cash Out Refinance Options on E2 Visa

[Rami Holzman]

Hi all, 

My first post here. Been reading BP and watching YT videos etc. for a while now. Live in the UK but planning on moving to the states next year (Philadelphia) on the E2 visa. 

A big concern about getting into real estate is mortgage/refinance options. My primary aim is to get into BRRRR predominately along with buy and hold investments to build up a portfolio to retire in 10-15 years.

My question is, will I likely have to wait for two years to establish credit and have a history of tax returns before I can look into mortgage options? Are there specialist lenders able to cater to those in my situation? I understand rates are likely to be less attractive, but at the moment I'd like to know if financing is an option at all.

Thanks

Rami
