Land watch and lands of america carry ranches and farms.

I understand the broader demographics of these markets but still very much in the early phases of delving deeper though I must say Cleveland has definitely shown some early appeal.Other Costs - I'm just looking for a general idea of what to expect on this front of things, things such as land tax (if the US has it), Stamp Duty (again if it exists), insurances (required/desired), management fees (I want a property manager in place due to time zones/distance/peace of mind), etc, etc.Finding a Team - This is one of the harder parts, I'm not averse to a trip to America for some research later in the year (if Australia ever opens its damn borders again!)

There are a number of U.S. banks with branches in China, including JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Citibank.

There are a lot of 501(c)'s that do truly amazing work in America's inner cities in terms of economic development, education, healthcare, etc.   

Finance of America said that they will be offering 30 year terms again in another week or two.

Are you looking at a local bank, regional bank or a big national bank (like Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America)?
