First if the country has appointed Apostilles then you will sign in front of a notary from the country you are in and then take that doc to the apostille at the local court house and have them verify and sign off on all documents and then you send that full package to US title company handling the transaction.If it is a country with no Apostilles(not all countries have them), then you will need to sign docs at Embassy which means needing an appointment in advance which can be tricky.

Rents (dependent on the local area and subdivision, but for sake of this sample, let's use this #) = $1,700 to $2,000.3/2 mobile home vintage 1980s with 1200 sq ft in our area:  Cost $10,000 - 25,000.  

If so perhaps the state requires you to have a local “registered agent” for purposes of receiving legal notices.
