Waltz's services are specifically designed to assist non-US citizens keen on investing in US property. We're here to support and guide you through your investment journey! P.S. US investors are invited too!
Our services are available to clients from all countries except those on the restricted list below. We have already assisted clients from Portugal, Colombia, Chile, and Israel - and the list keeps expanding.
Unfortunately, we are unable to extend our services to citizens from the following jurisdictions*: The Balkans, Belarus, Bosnia, Burma, Cote D'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Central African Republic, Croatia, Cuba, The Democratic Republic of The Congo, Iran, Iraq, Liberia, Libya, Macedonia, Montenegro, Myanmar, Nicaragua, North Korea, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Ukraine (Crimea Region), Ukraine (Luhansk Region), Ukraine (Donetsk Region), Venezuela, Yemen, and Zimbabwe.
*This list may be updated from time to time.
Prepare to be amazed! We've successfully financed all our loans and closed transactions in under 30 days* from the initial call. And guess what? Some clients even pulled it off in as little as 14 days. Now, that's what we call impressively speedy!
*Subject to timely and active buyer cooperation, standard transactions only.
Not at all! Our services are designed specifically for international investors like yourself. We consider the financial history in your home country to be important, so since you don't have a US credit score, we determine your eligibility based on your financial history, no matter where you call home.
Not at all! We like keeping things simple. Instead of an SSN, we just need your government-issued ID, which we verify through two quick steps - a screenshot and a selfie. Once you are verified, you will be able to purchase Waltz's Investor Kit within minutes, which includes an LLC with an Employer Identification Number (EIN).
When assessing financing options, Waltz verifies the eligibility of the property you intend to purchase, as well as information about you as a borrower. Therefore, you will need to provide documentation to verify your citizenship and demonstrate your financial capacity, and you'll be all set!
Don't worry about remembering everything right now - we'll walk you through the process during our initial call.
Each country requires a different set of documents, but don't worry. Once you're on board, we'll walk you through what you need and when. Typically, we'll ask for documents like Financial Statements, Bank Statements, income source information, and other relevant paperwork to comprehensively understand your financial situation.
Rest assured, we've got you covered, and we'll guide you throughout the process!
It's a breeze! Once you have a property in mind, simply provide your details here, and one of our team members will get in touch with you personally. You'll be amazed at how quick and easy it is.

We highly recommend setting up a Limited Liability Company (LLC) and obtaining an Employer Identification Number (EIN) for the following crucial reasons:
- An LLC provides personal liability protection, tax advantages, and more.
- An EIN is an absolute must, especially for non-US citizens, as it serves as your business's tax identification number.
- It opens doors for you to establish an LLC, a US business bank account, file taxes, and handle financial transactions related to your property.
When we say all-in-one experience, we mean it. With Waltz, we take care of all these essential steps for you, so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the convenience of handling everything from the comfort of your couch.
