Program 2 - Multi Currency Mortgages (available through-out Florida and several additional States) $400,000 minimum Purchase Price

  • Australian Dollar
  • Hong Kong Dollar
  • Swiss Franc
  • New Zealand Dollar

If you have rental income in euros it makes sense to have your quarterly mortgage repayments in euro to avoid exchange rate changes.
