Hi @Helena Goyvaerts,Investing in the US from a different country is fairly similar to investing as a US citizen, but there are a few differences and a few things to keep in mind.1.

Just kidding (sort of).A lawsuit will cost you $25,000 to $125,000 and a year and a half of your life.

Starting out, single-family was my go-to—easier to manage and a great intro to the game.

Quote from @Bryan Vukelich: Aloha @Lei Wei and as always, big mahalo @Andrew Steffens for recommending me.  

The regulation was ruled illegal and a permanent injunction was issued.  

There is statutory, and as you pointed out, now Fannie/Freddie guidelines, that exempt many transfers from being subject to the Due On Sale Clause...asset protection/estate planning purposes are covered.

These platforms are affordable and offer comprehensive reports (credit, background, eviction history) without you having to handle sensitive information directly.Verify Employment and Landlord History: Your plan to request pay stubs and a landlord reference is solid.

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

So, create status codes for both of these and a few in-between codes to help you work smarter, not harder.

It’s a good idea to work with a qualified intermediary and a tax advisor to ensure everything is structured properly and you’re clear on any tax implications.
