How long can a fixed interest rate-period be for foreign national?

Do you, a foreign national, have to be present in the USA to close on your new property?
- Many lenders do not compel you to be present within the USA at any point in the process.
- From credit application to closing, the entire process can be done over the phone/fax/or by courier. However, some lenders do require an in-person interview.
- Many lenders will require closing documents to be signed by a US Notary either in the US or at the US Embassy within your country.
