Which bank will loan to buy realestate in US for non US citizen who live and work outside US?
Hi
I am looking for a bank that will finance a real estate loan with maybe 10-20% down payment. I am not working in US neither do I have a SSN in US. I work in Europe but are looking for banks that can give loans for buying real estate in US.
You are out of luck. No bank will risk that kind of liability.
How to calculate area of the house for house insurance purpose.?
I know they dont require the basement area.The area given in real estate listing is very different if you calculate on your own with the mathmatical formula= lenth * breath. If you can also tell me how realestate people calculate area of the house. They just give you the range and no body knows what is the exact area and what it covers.
Well, there’s such a thing as a "Boeck residential square foot estimator".
What you do, is measure the outside of the house, ground floor. If it’s 2 full stories, you double it – that’s the square footage. You’re right, you don’t count the basement – there’s ANOTHER place where you factor in the basement, if it’s finished, if there’s a garage there, whatever.
Your agent can SHOW you exactly how the replacement value was calculated.
REAL ESTATE listings tend to measure the INSIDE of the rooms. They don’t include bathrooms, hallways, foyers, closets, etc, just the inside measure of each room (not the two square feet BETWEEN the two rooms), and add them together. However, that’s USABLE SPACE. Insurance companies don’t REPLACE usable space, they replace WALLS. So you measure the outside of the walls.
is becoming a home appraiser instead of a realestate agent a good way to go?
It depends on your drive. If you can make it on commissions then agent, other wise, appraiser. Getting hired as an appraiser will be tough though, there are only a few in each community.
How is the realestate is Costa rico I may be able to transfer with my company?
Need 2 bedroom home to rent or buy.What about daily living expenses like or less than us
how about apartment all need to be near the ocean
Prices can vary a lot, you need to establish what your budget is for renting or buying, they vary from $300- $2000 a month to rent , to buy you can say between US $50,000- 2 million.

Montreal Travel: Real Estate Listings in Old Montreal
From August 12 to 14, 2009 we spent three days in Montreal, primarily to watch the Rogers Cup, one of the premier events on the ATP Tour. Given that we are ardent tennis fans and have been attending the Rogers Cup in Toronto for many years, we decided to expand our tennis horizons and travel to Montreal this year. We had a chance to see the world elite of mens tennis players competing in Montreals Uniprix Stadium which is located in Jarry Park.
We spent two days at the stadium with our matinee tickets and saw all top 10 tennis players either compete or warm up on one of the side courts. Competitors included world number 1 Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Andy Roddick and many more. Attending a tennis tournament mid week is great because you see so much action, both in the main stadium and on the side courts. Watching Marat Safin practice bare-chested and tossing one of his rackets against the fence was definitely one of the highlights of this excursion.
We also had a bit of time to explore the city and enjoyed a nice dinner on Prince Arthur Square on the first day. This cobblestoned pedestrian street holds a large collection of restaurants and is buzzing with people at night time. We even played some tennis ourselves at Parc Lafontaine, an expansive public park that features a large pond and a variety of recreational facilities.
On Friday morning we also spent some time in Old Montreal and the Montreal Port area, one of Montreals primary tourist draws. This historic district dates back to 1605 when French Explorer Samuel de Champlain set up a fur trading post in the area. Ville Marie, the first permanent settlement in the Montreal area is also located in Old Montreal.
The Port of Montreal was one of Canadas most important ports until it lost importance in the 20th century, particularly with the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959 which shifted much of the marine shipping business further west in Canada. Many of the formerly abandoned warehouses have been converted into loft condos in recent years and have made Old Montreal one of the citys most popular (and expensive) residential areas.
Finally, we also drove up to Mount Royal, the mountain which overlooks Montreals downtown area. At a height of 233 m above the city, it provides great views of the downtown core, particularly from the Kondiaronk Belvedere, a large semicircular plaza with a perfect view of the downtown business district, the St. Lawrence River and the surrounding countryside. The Belvedere is anchored by the Chalet, a building from the 1930s that used to house big band concerts and many other social events.
Mount Royal is a popular public park and contains many kilometers of walking and biking trails, a short ski slope, a sculpture garden, a pond called Beaver Lake and various monuments. In the winter it is popular with cross-country skiers.
Montreal is a great summer getaway because of its many interesting neighbourhoods, restaurant districts and the myriad of festivals that are hosted by the city, which include the world famous Montreal International Jazz Festival and the annual Just for Laughs comedy festival.
