Maybe conventional loans (Fannie, Freddie) will not lend directly to a family trust, I know they won't lend to an entity, it all depends on the bank and the loan your are getting.

Fannie/Freddie are government entities that buy loans that are written to their standards.

Since finishing my first rehab at the end of 2013 this is the birds eye view of what I have been going on in 14'-Organized my business into an LLC and am recognized by state of Missouri as a business entity. 

Best of luck and feel free to contact me for information on management or entity development.

Or see if you can get a blanket loan for multiple properties (the blanket may be very tough to find not) Or buy in an entity like an LLC, this will require a commercial loan and that will be harder to find but would not count as a property against you.

So, it would be stronger for an actual POF, which is "cash in an account with the buying entity's name on it", you might consider pulling the cash into an account temporarily, then paying it back, to show actual cash.As far as % of asking price, it's a crap shoot.

I would advise/suggest you speak with a competent CPA or RE attorney regarding your entity structure.

Our speaker for the evening will be an attorney who will address business entities for investors and contracts for investors.

I haven't done it but one idea would be for you guys to form a LLC since that type of entity structure allows foreign citizens to be members.
