an important question…
I have a property in Israel and I am interested in taking a loan from one of the banks here in Israel (about 50 percent of the value of the property) for the purpose of making short-term transactions in the United States.
Is it worthwhile to take out a mortgage / balloon loan or other loan in terms of profitability (low interest rates, etc. או) or to make a mortgage on an American bank on houses I own abroad, instead I would love insights ??

KaRin Armel Your specialty is not?
Depending on your investment style, keep in mind that you have the option of taking up to 10 mortgages in the US, and each mortgage you need to be able to pay back 6 payments times the number of your mortgages plus the equity capital for investment, and there are a number of other disadvantages as you increase the number of mortgages in the US.
That's why my instinct is to say that in Israel, but again it's the way you invest.
Of course you may want to consult a professional
Hi uncle, I was exactly on your route and I have a very important detail to add to the equation and I will write a separate post about it:
I was in the process of leasing a property in the country for the benefit of buying a property in the sand. I spoke to every possible bank (!!), with different branches from each bank, with companies aiming to find me a mortgage at the best interest rate - everyone (!!) was tough, most unprofessional about the forms I had to get them for "loan purpose" (this was called All-purpose loan that you purchase in the sand) and at the end of the interest I reached is 4.9. (As of September 2018).
At the same time in the United States (where I live) the best interest rate I got in my data is 6.5%.
In a company called cash call
Who give loans to buy bites for a business purpose (flip or rent).
I decided I was moving forward with the country.
I told about the interest to a relative who understands how to deal with banks and he told me - You went crazy (?!?) 4.9 That's a lot !!! Change the purpose of the loan and all interest rates will change.
I went back to the Bank of Israel and asked for the same loan amount, this time the purpose is not to buy a property in the sand but to renovate my apartment in the country (again, both under "all-purpose loan" all that doesn't really matter) the same loan amount, same repayment period, same loan terms (fixed Not tight).
Interest rates dropped from 4.9 to 2.7 !!!!!!!!!
At the same time, I went to a lot of real estate seminars in the US (I live in California) and they all repeated the phrase "leverage is money from the bank - it's money that comes from no matter where (family/partner/bank/friends). It taught me that even when shopping with the bank you have to be creative to get a good interest rate.
Hope I helped.

Cheap is not the name of the game ..
This is part of it ... in the overall view
You should check all the options. I'm not a professional. But it seems to me that in Israel it will be much cheaper. For example, a loan for any purpose against the educational fund is in the worst case according to the site of Altshuler Shaham Prime and 2.5. That is, we will reach approximately 4 percent. In the US will not drop from 5.5 according to what I read here in the forum. On the other hand, if you take the US, you mortgage the property there, and it has advantages in terms of taking risks.
You can also leverage refinancing on your assets
Depending on their scope
I am happy to assist you. I am an accountant and financial planner.
This is affected by your financial robustness ..
How is your monthly flow going?
What percentage of interest and deployment ..
What is the effect in case of failure on the family unit and more
No doubt you need a professional but in my personal opinion alone it is not worth it because it can have an impact on each market on its own. That is, if the market in the country or the property in the country "hits" for any reason and alternatively in the US you may be exposed to something that you can not stand.
If you have properties in the US, take financing there not in the country. Chance Chance….
You have to sit with a truncated man and do financial planning
Depending on the interest rates, what they offer you here and what they offer you there ..
If you want I will connect you with my people mortgage advisers in the country and in the US who can help you
