Yes, Ecuadorian citizens can obtain a mortgage to purchase property in Florida. Ecuador has a growing community in South Florida, and an advantage for Ecuadorian buyers is that Ecuador uses the US dollar as its official currency, which simplifies financial documentation and fund transfers. With a 30% down payment, proper documentation from the SRI, and bank references, you can qualify for competitive financing.
