‘Thanks’ for your answer. I had  searched those  websites  but the
‘website addresses’ of international real estate funding organizations
 you had provided to me  does NOT  provide less than  ‘US$  two
million’ international hotel loans plus international commercial
loans.  My  requirement  is   MINIMUM
 US$ 100,000   for that purpose. So please provide to me  the 'website
addresses' of those international real estate funding organizations 
which  provide minimum of US$ 100,000  international hotel loans plus
international commercial  loans for  ‘investment’ for that purpose.
Thanks for it.

Hello, shoaib!

 It seems you have changed the parameters of your original question.
Your initial question mentioned nothing about dollar
amounts…..therefore, I did my research accordingly. Now that you have
stated you need a financing company that will consider international
motel finance with a loan as low as $100,000., I have found only two
that fit the bill, and a third that might be a possibility. They are
as follows:

(There is no information on the size of loans so you will have to make
a phone call)

 I wish I could add some other possibilities. However, now that you
have added additional restrictions, it has lessened the options I can
find online. The companies I reviewed either finance much larger
amounts, or do not mention loan amounts at all.

 I hope this helps. I have also noticed that you have several
outstanding questions of a similar nature that have not been answered.
If you have dollar restrictions surrounding these outstanding
questions, it would be helpful to researchers if you would edit them
appropriately to avoid the same type of misunderstanding.

Dear  Umiat-ga  many thanks for your answer. But  I want to mention
that if I ‘repost’ the above  mentioned question ID 121720, then in
that case
 you(Umiat-ga)  shall be able  to  provide to me the answer of the
above mentioned  question  with  ‘slightly’ changed  parameters in
that  question so  that I shall  be able to  repost that question?
Thanks for your help.

Clarification of Answer by umiat-ga on 16 Dec 2002 08:28 PST
shoaib,

  The information that I provided in the clarification should answer
your question about loans falling within the $100,000.00 amount. Other
than the references I gave you in the clarification, I was unable to
find out any other information.
  There is no need to repost a new question. I have already answered
it with the new parameters in the clarification.
 Thanks.

Hello  Umiat-ga  in  response  to your  statement  please  note  that 
my  requirement( for  international  commercial  property  loan)   is 
“100% Loan-To-Value OR  greater than  100%  Loan-To-Value”  real 
estate  ‘mortgage’ loan for residential  resort  property purchase in
South America  and Europe   for  ‘investment’.  Therefore  I want  to
know  that  those  international   real  estate  funding
organizations(you  had  mentioned  to me)   provide   residential 
resort  real  estate mortgage loan   according to the  above 
mentioned  conditions or  not  and  if they  provide  that 
residential  real  estate  mortgage loan  according  to above 
mentioned  conditions  then  I am  ‘totally  satisfied’  with  your 
answer  and  there is no  need  to  repost  this  question  again?  
Many  thanks  for  your  help  in  this  regard.

Shoaib,

 At this point in your question, since you have changed the parameters
so many times, I believe you would be better served by either:
 1. Calling the financing companies yourself so they can answer all
your questions.
 2. Reposting a very specific question that deals with this very
specific issue.

 It is very hard to figure out what a financing company will do for a
client in specific instances with general information over the
internet. I am in no position to call the companies for you since I am
unfamiliar with your specific circumstances.

 Universal Finance has posted this information on their site
underInternational Hotel Financing at
http://www.universalfinance.com/hotels.htm

  "There are too many types of programs available to list." 
  "We will fund loans as fast as one week (Bridge Loan)."
  "Typically loan to values are 75-80% (higher on a case by case
basis)."

   Contact us at: info@UniversalFinance.com
    or call (800)-334-2404 
   
 I advise you to call MBA Brokers about your specific questions:
  MBA Hotel Brokers
  3060 Washington Road
  Suite 250
  Glenwood, MD 21738
  (410) 489-5900

or
  MBA Hotel Brokers
  2394 Meadow Drive
  Fairfield, IA 52556
  (641) 919-7475
 
 Contact information for Proskauer Rose is available at
http://www.proskauer.com/practice_areas/areas/033
 Since they post no information about loan specifications on their
website, it is important that you call them personally.

 If you feel uncomfortable calling about this information yourself,
and would like further assistance from a researcher, then I suggest
you repost a seperate, very specific question asking a researcher to
call some specific international hotel financing companies for you
about "loan-to-value" specifications.

 At this point, we have gotten way beyond the scope of your original
question.

 However, I suggest that you should be the one to make a phone call to
these companies listed. That way, you are free to ask as many
questions as you like, and they may point you to some other financing
resources if you can explain your specific situation.

Hello Umiat-ga and thanks for your previous help. I am satisfied with
your great help. If you can provide to me a little more clarification
it would give me  great encouragement.
In the website address(you had mentioned to me)  of 
www.aareal-bank.com  organization it is written that we are
'international property specialist' and we can provide the financial
services for the  "most  complex investment projects and finance
requirements  throughout every area of property finance". It means
that if I apply to that Aareal bank for purchase of residential resort
property in France and Portugal country for 'investment' then that
Aareal
bank shall be able to provide to me '100% or greater than 100%
loan-to-value mortgage loan' for that purpose. Please "confirm" this
situation so that I shall be able to apply to Aareal bank for that 
purpose. Thanks for your help.

Clarification of Answer by umiat-ga on 22 Dec 2002 07:50 PST
Shoaib,

 Aereal Bank does not publicize loan dollar amounts on their website.
It would be unrealistic for me to contact them and discuss "your"
situation, since I am not equipped to do that. I imagine that bank
loan officers will have many questions about your individual situation
that I am not able to answer. Therefore, it would be much better for
you to call and speak to them individually.
 While I realize you would like me to "confirm" the loan reality for
you, I cannot imagine a bank agreeing to terms of a loan without
talking to the individual who is actually acquiring the loan.
Depending on indivual situations, each bank will often change their
loan parameters to suit a particular situation.
 Therefore, you will be much better served if you contact the bank and
discuss your particular loan details with them confidentially.

Shoab,
 Hello! You can certainly post a question for my attention by stating
"for Umiat" in the title. I will try to answer it!
 If I cannot find the answer, I will open it up to other researchers.
Okay? I will be looking for it.

Shoaib,
 I am not sure exactly "what" your new question will entail, but
please be sure that you are very clear, and that you have realistic
expectations about whether a researcher can find the information you
require. In other words, I, as a researcher, am limited to what I can
find online. I cannot make international phone calls or find out
information that is not posted to the public, or that requires
personal, individual contact by a customer.

Umiat researcher in response to your above statement please note that
I have now posted my another Question ID: 783837 for its answer for
the contact information of global funding brokerage  and I also want
to mention the question in that question ID is very simple and you can
easily provide its answer so therefore Umiat researcher please provide
its answer and great thanks for that help from Shoaib and I am looking

I'm sorry, shoaib. I don't believe I have the expertise to answer your
new question. Since you did not specifically mention me by name in the
posted question, it is open to all researchers. I hope someone will be
able to answer it you.

Request for Answer Clarification by shoaib-ga on 18 Nov 2006 14:53 PST
Umiat researcher in response to your above statement OK you only use
the 'search strategy' so as to obtain the list of the international
funding brokerage companies providing funding according to the
conditions I had mentioned in that of my question ID and I would
myself search that list of websites so as to locate those
international funding brokerages and Umiat researcher I hope in this
way that question ID can be "easily answered" and Umiat researcher
please provide 'response' of my above mentioned solution for the
answer of that question ID and thanks and I am looking forward to
hearing from you for that purpose.

Clarification of Answer by umiat-ga on 18 Nov 2006 15:15 PST
Shoab,
 What I mean is that I do not have the experise to find the types of
companies that meet all the conditions that you have asked for in your
question:

specialized  global funding brokerage arranging "fully collateralized
financing in the form of certificate of deposit 

OR in the form of MTN(medium term notes)" to pay for ALL OF THE
PROJECT COSTS without any cost to the borrower for purchase of real
estate(including residential real estate) of "minimum" US$ 500,000  or
US$ 1 million for commercial investment

The above mentioned global funding brokerage should also accept
"executive summary" for existing  real estate projects for above
mentioned purpose.

=

To find companies that meet those conditions would take weeks of
research. Do you understand what I mean? I would hardly know where to
start!

Umiat researcher if I place the below mentioned simple question in
that question ID for its answer then I want to know that it would be
acceptable to you for its answer because below mentioned question is
very simple to answer :

"specialized  global funding brokerage arranging any 'collateralized
financing'  to pay for ALL OF THE PROJECT COSTS without any cost to
the borrower for purchase of real estate(including residential real
estate) of "minimum" US$ 500,000  or US$ 1 million for commercial

Shoaib,
 There are many researchers here who are far more capable of answering
that type of business question than I am. Here is what I suggest.
 Add this additional question clarification on the new question you
posted. I promise you - if a researcher is able to answer it, they
will do so. Every researcher here at GA can see the question. I will
also try to look at some research for you when I have time.
Thanks!

It certainly looks as if umiat has indeed provided you with at least
one website address that fits your needs:

"UniversalFinance.com 
http://www.universalfinance.com/  
Commercial Loans - http://www.universalfinance.com/commercial.htm ...

---> $100,000 to $500,000,000   (larger amounts available - case by

  'Our International division handles our offshore financing from
South America to Eastern Europe. We have funded many "hard to do

The above company provides loans from a minimum of $100,000.
