Foreign National Investment Loans do exist.

A few of them have been foreign exchange students.

We loan to LLC's we would require a copy of the Certificate of Foreign Corporation filed with the State of Florida authorizing the LLC to conduct business in their state.

In a fund model the investor makes his money over time and the economics to the managers are in large part directly tied to the return we achieve for our investorsReduced management time / ability to be hands off – we would suggest that for most accredited investors, the amount of time it takes to properly understand and optimize the performance of the business, even if it can be achieved at all from a long distance and without becoming a specialist, is probably better spent on other activitiesBenefit from greater economies of scale than one can achieve with individual purchases – everything from materials purchasing, rehab crews, property management etc.Advantages on debt – specifically: Funds’ debt is non-recourse to investors whereas individuals’ debt is typically fully recourse to their other assets in a worst case scenarioFor many foreign investors debt leverage is not available at all or not on competitive terms, so this is a particular improvement for foreign investorsEnhanced exit scenarios, specifically becoming attractive as an institutional roll-up, with the better potential exit valuation that may drive vs. a one-by-one sale scenarioWe have bought and managed 2000+ homes in a range of markets for institutional investors in the past few years and so definitely bring best-in-class management experience to the venture.

I work with foreign and out of state buyers as I had been investing from overseas myself before I became a full time investor in Houston.

Do many foreigners own property in Spain which they rent out to tourists for something like vacation? 

You can theoretically be holding while not present, and should not face any risk of losing ownership - unless you are a foreign diplomat based in the US, or you have some sort of personal ties to the government of your home nation. 

As a host, I've been personally called by AirBnB to host guests who had their original reservations cancelled in the surrounding area, so that's been reassuring to know that they would go those lengths to help guests out of unfortunate situations, particularly important if it's in a foreign country (I've never had this happen to me personally when I was abroad though as I was lucky with great hosts).

Foreign/domestic investors buying overpriced assets, interest rates going up, and a tightening of credit standards... which we are already seeing a hint of.How is almost every MSA not in a bubble?

I look foward to chatting with some of you.Cheers,Shawn :)Welcome to the forum mate,I always stress to every foreign investor to focus more on the people rather than the stats/demographics of an area or a deal.Establishing the right relationships with key people here in the US will either make or brake your investments.Thanks and much success
