Foreign Currency Mortgage is a mortgage denominated in a foreign currency.This is a mortgage which allows a borrower to draw loan in another currency.In simple terms, the debt is denominated in a currency, which is different from the currency associated with the mortgage securing asset.

Features of foreign currency mortgage are as following:
  • It is used for buying a property abroad.

  • It carries an element of risk due to currency fluctuations.

  • Borrower has to pay local fees and taxes. He is also charged by the mortgage broker, for his services.

  • It gives the opportunity to borrow money at lower rates of interest, by choosing the currency of a country, which has lower lending rates of interest.

  • It mostly provides fixed rate of interest terms.

  • It is available in Euro, US, Australian, New Zealand, Canadian, and Hong
    Kong dollars.

  • Here the mortgage debt remains in the foreign currency and the interest is also charged in that currency.

This is a mortgage community and not a loan company, Milt. You need to contact the local lenders and apply for a loan. Not all mortgage lenders can offer a loan using the vacation property as collateral. So, you need to get approved for a loan from those lenders who'll offer you such loans.
