Our client who lives in Vancouver purchased a San Diego property. She used a local San Diego lender but was required to have 25% as a downpayment. Did you ever get your information regarding condo hotels here in San Diego?

More likely than not, 25-40% would be required as a foreign Investor. There are a few lenders that still may consider such a financing option- you may be able to locate a multi-national bank in Cananda that writes US loans. We have a few here in Miami; RBC and De Jardin for example.

Nader,
Jackie is correct in that lending practices have changed . at best you can probably get a 25% down payment with full documentation.
of course every situation is different but if you like i can put you in contact with a local mortgage lender in south florida (Ft Lauderdale area) to see if she can help you?

Hello Nader,

I am sorry to say that the restrictions have changed on the amount a foreign investor must put down on a home. Most lenders are asking for at least 25% for full documentation loan and 35% on a stated loan.
Since I am not a mortgage broker or banker, I would have you speak directly to one to discuss your options.
Please let me know If I can help.
Are you looking in the Disney area?
