Seattle is crazy expensive due to Amazon and foreign investment.

If you're looking at US real estate, here's a list of foreign national lenders....

I am based in Barcelona Spain and help foreign investors to buy real estate in the city.

@Evan DerheimKeep in mind you will need to register the LLC in CA which has an annual minimum franchise tax if $800 plus WA state as a foreign LLC.

Hi there,New here and to the RE investment world.My question:If I buy a property in a different state (say Indiana)/use an Umbrella insurance policy instead of Indiana LLC, and I reside in CA, can I forgo the Foreign LLC cost ($800), or am I still considered doing business in CA? 

I was bidding on one here in Portland were we could build 45 homes.. and it had to be a life estate but we lock in todays price.. and of course we actually have appreciation in our market I know that can be a foreign concept in other markets.. and it depends on how much liquidity you have and what your balance sheet looks like..

I don't know if as foreign you are able to get a morgage but I can ask some local banks and come back to you with an answer. 

I don't bother with incorporating in CA, just file out of state and get a cert of foreign status. 

Being a foreign national, I realise that there is some red tape that I need to overcome; 1) Such as creating a bank account (which I read only two banks offer to create accounts for foreign nationals and I must come to America to create it). 1.1) I've also read that I should open a business account to pay less taxes.
