What if you told the tenant you would pay them XYZ if you could sell the property before foreclosure?

If you pay the $250 and they say it's all perfectly glued and installed schedule 80 then you're going to have confidence without worry.

Furthermore if they are always paying they probably will stiff you in the end if they know they aren't going to get the deposit back. 

Ultimately, you will need to have the borrowed funds in USD and ideally in your US business entity bank account to sail through underwriting with US lenders on US properties.Caveat: the rates will likely be something like 10-12% so it would not make sense on a long-term holding, more like on a down payment on a purchase and rehab value-add project that you will eventually sell (or cash-out refinance) to pay off the borrowed funds in a few months. 

We accepted a pre list offer of $236000.00 with us paying the closing and are scheduled to close mid March.
