Loan Transaction Spotlight
The Situation: Insignia Mortgage recently closed on a $20million second home purchase for a foreign corporate executive with 60% lender financing from a foreign bank which had small presence in California.
The Solution: Insignia Mortgage worked with the client’s foreign legal counsel and US-based CPA to properly structure the purchase in a tax-efficient manner. The client purchased the home using an LLC with the buyer guaranteeing the loan. We helped the loan go through successfully despite not having U.S. income, credit, or assets.
The Loan Details:
- $13 million loan amount
- 5/1 ARM
- 6.250% APR
- 30-year term with no prepayment penalty
- 28-day close of escrow
From my early career as a sales associate through my years as the owner of a successful Los Angeles-based real estate company, I gained solid respect for the important role a mortgage lender plays in the successful purchase of a residential property. In my experience, Insignia Mortgage consistently accomplished what others could not. I not only use the firm for my personal finance needs but unhesitatingly recommend Insignia to my friends and colleagues.
