Yes, Venezuelan citizens can obtain a mortgage to purchase property in Florida. Venezuela has one of the largest immigrant communities in South Florida, and lenders understand the unique circumstances of Venezuelan buyers. While sanctions compliance (OFAC screening) is part of the process, it does not prevent qualified Venezuelan nationals from purchasing property. Many Venezuelan buyers use TPS status, asylum documentation, or tourist visas. Down payments typically start at 30%, and funds from international accounts outside Venezuela are often easier to document.
30%
Minimum
Venezuelan buyers need a 30% minimum down payment, valid passport, 12 months of bank statements (US or international accounts preferred due to Venezuelan banking limitations), 2-3 bank reference letters, proof of income, CPA letter, and OFAC compliance clearance. Due to the complex situation in Venezuela, lenders prefer documentation from banks outside Venezuela. TPS holders and asylum recipients may have additional documentation options.
The mortgage process for Venezuelan buyers takes 35-50 days, slightly longer due to additional compliance screening. Pre-qualification in 1-2 days, document collection 2-3 weeks (may take longer if gathering documents from multiple countries), underwriting 2-3 weeks (includes OFAC clearance), closing 1 week.
