A "real estate broker" is any person, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, association, professional corporation, or corporation, foreign or domestic who, for another, and for a compensation or valuable consideration, does, or attempts to do, any or all of the following...In Utah, we have a list of exceptions including being a principal on a transaction.  

I'm looking for an accountant/CPA that doesn't find real estate dealings a foreign language. 

Our leverage potential is limited by lender conditions to foreigners which tends to mean a much lower LTV (ca. 40% down) and difficulties in refinancing making BRRRR returns a little skinny.Regards, Harry

We have and currently still sell to many foreign investors. 

first of all, this is my first post, i am from argentina, after looking many ways to where to invest my money, i think the only one that i felt confident was purchasing a property in USAi purchased 2 apartments in Miami 2 years ago (115k usd total in that time), in the bottom of prices i think, now they worth 20% more, plus the rent (with a few extra costs, fixes and had to fire a tenant due non payment and pay sheriff stuffs).the process that we do for non united states residents is form a LLC and purchase the properties as a LLC, we paid some extras at the end of year for renew it but its ok.the overall experience was good.but after reading and reading and reading, i became to this great forum, and figured out that could have been even better.i could had purchase a multifamily property, a big one of 400k usd and do a 25% downtime payment with that 100k that i invested. but i think that i couldn't did that because i don't have credit score or history as foreigner.
