The non-recourse lender I used in the past for my 401k was called IRA Lending (North American Savings Bank), and I had a very positive experience with them.

I'm an American citizen closing on a Riviera Maya property in the next few months.

After researching the appraisal company "Associates Appraisal Inc" I found similar reviews of their homes being devalued by $100,000, The Appraiser showing up without a mask, and similar situations of the appraiser intentionally picking unfavorable comps.After bringing it to the lenders attention that the appraiser red lined my appraisal and without saying that I'm African American but that my homes are located in a predominately African American neighborhood that he shouldn't assume that my houses marketability is only to African Americans and his sales comps directly insinuate that people who are shopping for homes on the left side of one street have no interest on homes on the right side of the street.

American Real Estate is a local company there.
