Building Your Portfolio in Dallas — From Anywhere

Whether you're investing from across the country or across the world, I help you buy with confidence and manage with ease — in English or Hebrew.

Itamar Melzer, Dallas real estate agent

Your agent on the ground

Investing from a distance comes with real challenges — finding the right property, knowing the numbers actually work, and trusting someone to handle what you can't be there for. That's exactly what I handle for investors: the search, the analysis, and a trusted pair of hands on the ground.

Remote & Cross-Border Transactions

I run the entire purchase for buyers who can't be here — same-day video walkthroughs, remote signing, and introductions to lenders who work with non-resident investors. Clear updates at every step, in English or Hebrew.

Rental & Cash-Flow Analysis

Before you commit, I help you understand the numbers — comparable rents, realistic income expectations, and what a property could mean for your portfolio.

Property Management Network

Once you've closed, I connect you with trusted property managers and contractors so your investment runs smoothly — even if you're never physically there.

FAQ

Investing From Abroad — Common Questions

Can I buy in Dallas if I live abroad?

Yes — many of my investor clients never set foot in Dallas before closing. I handle showings by live video, send you a clear summary on every property, and coordinate a fully remote closing.

Can a non-US resident get a mortgage?

Often, yes. There are lenders who specialize in foreign-national and non-resident investor loans, and I can introduce you. Many investors also buy in cash and refinance later.

What taxes should I plan for?

Texas has no state income tax, but property taxes are higher than many expect, and US rental income is taxable. Foreign sellers also face FIRPTA withholding at sale. I connect you with cross-border tax professionals — this isn't tax advice.

Should I buy through an LLC?

Many investors do, for liability protection and privacy. I can introduce you to attorneys who set these up for out-of-country buyers — again, not legal advice, just the right people.

Who manages the property after I buy?

I connect you with vetted property managers who handle tenants, rent, and maintenance — typically around 8–10% of monthly rent — so your investment runs without you being here.

How do I move funds from abroad to close?

Funds are wired into the title company's secure escrow ahead of closing. I coordinate the timing and paperwork with the title company while you work with your bank or an FX provider on the transfer — and I make sure everyone is talking to each other. (Not financial advice.)

Do you speak Hebrew?

Yes. I work with Israeli investors regularly — we can do everything in Hebrew or English, whatever's easier for you.
