I'm researching the opportunity to refinance a portfolio of rentals (non-recourse)Are there alternatives to B2R, Firstket and Colony american finance?

For those not familiar Golden Gate Estates is the great example of the Florida Land Swindle in the 60' where Gulf American Land Corp sold swampland to people.

I say some as we've used both the "bamboo"  and "maple" patterns/finishes and they are wearing well (three years worth of students later), but were less impressed with a darker (American walnut?)

Here is the situation:I am an American citizen living in Japan who owns 5 single family properties in the US.

It can be a very powerful strategy that when used properly will allow you to secure higher returns for your IRA dollars.The leading lenders who offer such non-recourse loans at the national level include:First Western Federal Savings Bankwww.myiralender.comNorth American Savings Bankwww.iralending.comThere are some others on a local/regional level.Because the lender's only security is the property, the terms are a bit more conservative - typically 30-40% down and 10% in reserves.  

These zoning regs don't allow more than two un-related adults to be on a lease in one home - unless it's zoned as a commercial property (i.e. apartment complex). 

They started out as American community bank, then purchased by Yadkin valley bank & trust which changed their name to just Yadkin bank.

, visit the entire lineup of American national parks, start a conservation- or education-focused business (probably something online or with a small, local reach).TL;DR - I want to attain financial independence so I can more easily do the things that make me happy.

Great for relationships.Check out Marquette Bank, US Bank, First American..You are probably looking at doing a cash out refi

Hey @David Kirtman where in Japan are you based - always enjoy chatting with an American living out here.
