Living and working overseas can present unique challenges when it comes to securing financing, but there are definitely loan options designed for situations like yours.

Hi All, my names Josh, I'm a kiwi living in the UK building the portfolio with a unique business model which brings into other investors into a compoinding model with both Capital and perpetual returns.i have a well developed process and network here in the UK and New Zealand, wanting to explore the US market.

You must work at least 750 hours per year in a qualified RE business.So most people who have high-earning W-2 jobs outside of real estate wouldn't qualify.But the unique thing about RE pro status is that even if you don’t qualify but your spouse does, you can both file jointly and claim the losses from your RE investments to offset your other active income together.

I also have two buy-and-hold rental properties and am passionate about exploring unique financing opportunities.Recently, I used a VA loan assumption to purchase an investment property at a 3.3% interest rate, which was instantly cash flow positive.

People have no idea how incredibly, unbelievably awesome and unique America is until they live overseas.

Thank you for your unique insight, given you worked on a very similar project to the ones coming up in the pipeline in the Robinson Terminal South project you worked on.

However, consider calling the VA’s regional loan center or speaking with a VA-approved lender who can interpret the rules in a more specific scenario tailored for you.
