Buying U.S. Property From Overseas Doesn't Have to Be Complicated

You can buy and finance U.S. real estate while living abroad — as a foreign national or a U.S. expat — without U.S. citizenship or residency.

Purchasing real estate in the United States while living abroad often involves unique financing challenges. Traditional lenders may struggle with foreign income, international assets, overseas residency, or non-U.S. credit histories.

America Mortgages specializes exclusively in helping Foreign Nationals and U.S. Expats navigate the U.S. mortgage process through financing solutions designed for international borrowers — qualifying you on foreign income or the property's rental income, with no U.S. credit history required on most programs.

How it works

How the property purchase process works

  1. 1

    Speak With a Mortgage Specialist

    Discuss your property goals, borrower profile, residency status, and financing needs with an experienced mortgage professional who will explain the solutions available for your situation.

  2. 2

    Review Financing Options

    Our team evaluates your financial profile, property objectives, income sources, and documentation to identify the programs that best align with your goals, and explains qualification requirements.

  3. 3

    Get Pre-Qualified

    Receive an initial assessment of your purchasing power, estimated loan amount, and down-payment requirements — so you can shop with confidence.

  4. 4

    Submit Documentation

    Provide the required borrower and property information — identification, income or asset verification, bank statements, and purchase-contract details. Requirements vary by profile and program.

  5. 5

    Underwriting & Property Review

    The lender reviews your application, supporting documentation, and property details — including appraisal, title review, and any conditions required to satisfy underwriting guidelines.

  6. 6

    Close on Your U.S. Property

    Once all conditions are satisfied, you complete the closing — signing remotely at a local notary or embassy — and finalize your mortgage, then move forward with your purchase.

Rated “Excellent” by U.S. expats & foreign nationals worldwide
I am very lucky to have found America Mortgages to help me with my project living abroad, and I am particularly amazed by the engagement of Hanah, who has been following every step of my case since Day 1. She was extremely helpful every time we encountered a bump in the road — always thinking of solutions, thinking out of the box, and keeping me motivated. My deepest gratitude goes to Hanah.

America Mortgages was fantastic to work with as an American expat. I needed to refinance my condo in DC but living overseas. For most lenders I was denied because my income was foreign. I worked closely with Nick and was able to refinance with a lower payment — the entire process was seamless and took less than 6 weeks. More than a 5★ experience.

Nick is absolutely wonderful. I'm a Canadian purchasing a house in Tampa, Florida and he made the process smooth and easy!! Thank you Nick!!

Pleasure to work with. Very clear from Day 1 as to what they could achieve. Didn't promise anything that they couldn't fulfill.

As both a lawyer and an individual I've been involved in many complex real estate transactions in Canada and the US. Of all the professionals I've worked with, Roberto Johnson of America Mortgages is without a doubt the absolute best. Where others said no, he said yes — and came up with truly creative solutions. An absolute game-changer. We couldn't have done it without him!
Julian Hermida· via Google
We had a quick closing date, were in a sticky situation and needed a foreign mortgage in record time. The team went above and beyond, put us in direct contact with the lender, worked at lightning speed and kept us in the loop the whole way. Thank you for getting us into our new home!
Katie Kuperman· via Google
As someone who owns real estate in two different countries I expected the USA process to be much easier. A bank and another company couldn't approve my mortgage. I found America Mortgages online at the airport between flights — thank God! Even easier than getting a mortgage for my own home in London. 5 stars for service and flawless execution!
Lauren Chu· via Google
Joe Aaron has been an exceptional help during this process! As Canadians, we were told by other brokers they were unable to get a mortgage for our grandparents' home. Thankfully, Joe was able to assist us and allow us to keep it! Thank you so much for your guidance and help!
