How to Invest with Leon Global as a Non-US Citizen
We have created a simple, six-step process for non-US citizens to invest in American real estate.
Create an account.
Sign up on the Leon Global website, using your full legal name. Please note that only the account holder can invest using this account.
Schedule a meeting with Leon Global.
Because all investors (domestic and international) are required to be accredited before investing, we would like to meet with you to discuss the accredited qualifications before moving to the next step. During this meeting, we will outline the requirements and confirm that you qualify. We will also help answer any questions you have about the process or our investments in general. Please contact mustafa.kucuker@leon.global to schedule a call.
Meeting with a US CPA (Certified Public Accountant).
Once you have been verified as an accredited investor, Leon Global provides a free one-hour consultation with a CPA. There are multiple ways to invest as a non-US citizen, and the CPA will help find the best way for you to invest, based on your country and specific investment goals.
Open a company or US corporation.
Investing as a non-US citizen typically involves creating an American business entity for legal purposes. After your consultation with the CPA, you will be able to hire the CPA and work directly with them to set up the business structure that best suits your unique circumstances.
Invest!
With your new business entity, you can start investing in Leon Global’s real estate projects. The minimum investment for international investors is $100,000, which you can invest in one property or spread across multiple properties to diversify your investment portfolio.
