@Adrienne Green Thanks Adrienne!

In any case, I hope it's potentially very profitable to compensate for the risk.Generally, neither banks nor other lending institutions will lend cross-border to private individuals for such purposes.So, I can think of three options:1.

This is really the biggest hurdle that most people never cross so pat yourself on the back for getting into the game!
