It’s great that you have industry knowledge to navigate that.

They are a special asset class that take some deep knowledge.

Compared to the US, the financing is different (if you need any), the legal system is different (you need to vet the parties), pre-construction works differently (if that's what you want to buy), the buyer/seller psychology is different, ...It's important that you get the needed knowledge or work with people who have it and have their interests aligned with yours.I have replied to hundreds of posts about investing in Mexico over the years so you might find some what you look for there.

Sure terms matter, but I would imagine if you took a poll of bankable borrowers and asked why they work with particular alternative lenders they will all say the lender is knowledgeable which leads to practical underwriting and practical loan administration.

I grew up on the east side of the town with a well versed knowledge of the neighborhood. 

So, all in all talking to a knowledgeable real estate attorney for a specific situation is the best idea! 

I would definitely recommend them to others looking for a reliable and knowledgeable lender.
