<<It seems that anybody anywhere in the globe can come to my country and get in on the real estates boom with no questions asked. Nobody ever asks to see your papers when you are buying or selling, well actually they want you to pay your title search fees, I guess that's papers, but it is not Citizenship papers.>>

Just to lend a little realism to this suddenly-turned-silly discussion, a Social Security number is most often required to buy property in the U.S. Some lenders can be found who will help the applicant overcome this obstacle, but it's not an easy or cheap obstacle to overcome. Forget about getting the lowest possible interest rate for a mortgage in this scenario.

If the buyer wants title insurance on his purchase--even if the purchase was made in cash with no loan--the title insurer will have requirements, as well.
