But it does lend a tone of seriousness to the deal, and can help both parties negotiate in a more constructive fashion." 

International lenders?

Hi everyone,Over the last few years, I've responded to almost 700 posts on buying and investing in international real estate yet I haven't written any single post.

Real estate was scary at the time, the news were bad, prices were dropping and nobody knew if that would ever get better.I had a well paying corporate job at the time (which also meant international travel 2 weeks every m month), so I did not have much time and it also it took me a year to find the confidence and the money for another one.

I will have to do my due diligence and research everything that has been stated here on this thread.This might be a silly question but how does financing work internationally? 

After doing numerous internet searches, it does not come up in any fashion under my name - and this guy somehow got it.

“Unfortunately, many taxpayers are forced to bite the bullet if they have not utilized any of these strategies in a timely fashion.”Consider Tax Changes for 2024 Tax YearIf you’re planning to sell your home, consider tax changes initiated for tax year 2024, McGuff says.

When you're looking at new builds make sure you check to see if they have a preferred/internal lender and/or an interest rate buydown available, which can really change the terms of the deal. 3 months ago some of the new construction companies in my area were offering permanent 3.5%, 30-year interest rates and up to $80k (10%) off of list for using their lenders.

Appraisers may not like it when I come out and say what I'm doing in this fashion (or using the word "controlling"), but empirically, it works.And, I'll stress again, my intent is not to have anyone do anything unethical or to try to get an appraiser to do anything unethical; my intent is to persuade an appraiser that out of a stack of relevant data, the data that best supports my interests is the right data to use.

My dad put on an international micro housing competition last year here in Denver, utilizing a real site in the RiNo neighborhood here in Denver.
