What is a foreign national mortgage? A foreign national mortgage is a non-QM home loan for people who live outside the United States and want to buy property here. Lenders may accept a passport, foreign income and foreign credit references in place of US credit and tax records.

Austin draws buyers from all over the world, whether for a place to stay while visiting family, a home near a child at UT or a rental property. Financing from abroad can feel complicated, but some wholesale lenders specialize in it. This program is part of our non-QM loan options.

Typical uses

  • A second home in Austin for visits, family or school
  • An investment property in Austin or elsewhere in Texas. Rental buyers may also compare DSCR loans and other investment property loans.
