Everywhere I travel, you can bet they know what "Los Angeles CA" means even if they don't speak a lick of English!

Who spoke no English.

I don't think that our Commercial Assn. of Realtor's form lays their responsibilities out in enough plain English. 

Sorry my for me syntax, English is my second language.

I just reached out to an English-speaking CPA in Japan. 

Purchase price: $225,000 Cash invested: $40,000 Sale price: $326,000 I purchased a clean english tudor in Minneapolis MN, there were a few updates done and I did a light reno job on the kitchen, bath, and some light cosmetic touches in the basement.

Again very unusual, but has English as 2nd language, hasn't lived in US that long.Also based on 20+ years of doing this, helped him win a multiple offer situation when he was not the highest higher.Then they see we get this nice fee at closing...and in their mind we only did 30 minutes of work.

I found this property through a real estate broker one that I knew before, he's actually my English teacher in high school.

You could interview your potential lender with a long list of questions including those mentioned above, avoid those with too-good-to-be-true terms, ask for references, check for Gmail, foreign accents, bad English, and on and on.
