        "text": "Foreign national buyers often face higher down payment requirements compared to U.S. citizens. Lenders typically require a minimum of 20% to 30% down payment, and sometimes more, especially if you do not have a credit history in the U.S. The exact percentage can vary based on the lender, loan program, and your financial profile. Preparing for a larger down payment is a practical tradeoff that can simplify securing financing for your Florida property.",
