Hi Bishoy -You can go with private money lenders that lend to foreign nationals in FL.

In any buying situation I would only do it through a lawyer, and I work with one that has a lot of experience in Real Estate, has worked with foreigners investing in Panama and is bilingual. 

I'm about to buy my first property un the united states as a foreign investor with my brother.

Owners and managers need to make decisions on applicants based on criteria that is non-discriminatory under the law, and that minimize the risk to the owner in a legal fashion.I completely understand your concern for ex-cons who need a second chance. 

Ie wet wipes, sanitary napkins, toys, or other foreign objects.

And if/when the expansion to other states comes around, file as a foreign LLC?

Register your California LLC as a "foreign LLC" in Ohio.

He can explain how our other foreign nationals obtain great managemet. 

This will decrease the overall amount fees.There are several fees for setting up an LLC.1) LLC Application Fees2) LLC Annual Fees(Varies by state)3) Fees paid to website/Attorney to set up LLC4) Fees paid to registered agent if you do not have a contact in the state.ExampleIf you purchased a property in Pennsylvania and created an LLC in Pennsylvania - you would have to pay the above 4 fees.Example 2If you purchased a property in Pennsylvania and created an LLC in New Jersey - you would have to pay the above 4 fees to Pennsylvania and fees 1-3 to New Jersey since you would need to register the NJ LLC as a foreign LLC eligible to do business in NJ.

If you have a Delaware LLC and do business in Illinois you must file in Illinois as a foreign entity and that pretty much wipes out why you went to Delaware in the first place.
