You might want to join the American Association of Private Lenders.

Quote from @Sami Gren: HI,I am using a contractor for a full apt gut rehab, I would like to know if anyone has a contractor's contract that I can work off (of course will add or take off accordingly) he is a new contractor, so he doesn't have one,  [I am using him because I have used him for past several years on smaller projects, so I know to trust him.]Thank you A contractor is supposed to be well versed with writing contracts, hence "contractor"AIA (American Institute of Architects) has some good resources.A good tradesmen doesn't always make a good contractor. 

It's the American way.

Be careful of someone that wants to "partner" with you and ask you to use your credit.Can be a good idea, but only if serious partnership agreement created by your attorney (not theirs).You can also start building your network to find opportunities to refer out and learn from.Per this NY Times article, the average American knows around 600 people.https://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/19/science/the-average-american-knows-how-many-people.html#:~:text=The%20average%20American%20knows%20about,do%20you%20know%20named%20Kevin%3FPer the US Census Bureau, the average American moves 11.7 time in their life, which based upon an approximate lifespan of 84 years, works out to be about every 7 years.https://www.census.gov/topics/population/migration/guidance/calculating-migration-expectancy.html#:~:text=Using%202007%20ACS%20data%2C%20it,one%20move%20per%20single%20yearSo, if the average American knows 600 people and they each move about every 7 years, that means that the average American knows around 85 people that move in any given year.How many of those moves do you want to be involved in?

Interestingly, this from the American Association of Private LemdersFew know that the American Association of Private Lenders was for a brief period in 2009 (the same year it was established) called the National Hard Money Association.

2) Is there any difference between an LCC formed by non-residents to one formed by 100% Americans partners in terms of tax benefits and tax return?

I feel too much power either way the abusers will take over the system and the results will not be good for the American public at large.

@Edgar JimenezI found a call center in Nicaragua with deported Americans who spoke the best English I’ve found for $10 /hour.

What is your contingency plan if this trade war and stock market volatility trickles down into American real estate and property values drop 25 to 40% in the next few years?

I applaud American West Realty and Management!
