You can....for the most part there are no restrictions on non-citizens or non-residents investing in USA. 

And FHA is the financing with the most restrictions and requirements.But you'll need to run this info all by your lender first before you make an offer.

I’ve been drawing interest lately in the Atlanta 30331 market, I’ve always admired this area , because I’ve always saw the potential in it, most people before would have never even thought to invest in this area but now it seems to be one of those area where I’m seeing a lot of rehabs, along with the Collier heights & grove park 30318 area , I’m looking more so buy and hold more so on something that needs more so cosmetic repair , not the full rehab , and  I’m having trouble trying to narrow down a market to focus on, my main target is cash flow , 10-12% net returns, 20% gross returns , anyone have any suggestion what market in a 50 mile radius of the Atlanta metro area I should maybe focus on ? 

There is criteria that you have to meet income restrictions or find no income limit area's or pockets in certain area's.

I can't see them restricting wall colours. 

Unfortunately, that was what was available in the area for our price point and not having restrictions on the land.  

The problem is house hacking usually suggests that the property is in crappy condition, which you'll find a lot more of in the boroughs other than Manhattan, except for the Harlem area is investor friendly, as is maybe Washington Heights area, but generally, Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx you're getting much more inventory than in Manhattan.

Asheville investors,  this is one of the most recent threads I could find and I would like to hijack it temporarily to see if any of you recommend a CPA in Asheville.Regarding the original post, it sounds like you have a flag lot so you'll need to look up the city's requirements or restrictions on flag lots. 

You just have call around to local banks and credit unions.PenFed can allegedly do it in TX (based on one phone call I made a few weeks ago), but there are restrictions: The LOC applicant(s) can own no more than 4 properties, including primary residence.

If you don’t meet the income restrictions, you would have to find the no income limit restricted areas.
