Hello, I'm new here and would like some advice... My company is sending me with my family to work in our office in Reston, VA. I plan to buy a house in northern Virginia but it's been a challenge trying to get a loan as a foreigner without any recent credit history. Can anyone provide some advice on how I might be able to get a loan fast? I have excellent credit history in Singapore. Also, I'd like to find out how much taxes I will have to pay. Any pointers to where I can get some tax advice? THANKS!
