You need atleast a US green card holder who can cosign the loan

Yeah, like D1 said, you need at least a citizen (or permanent resident) to co-sign with you.

You can try private lenders, there are some in the market, but the interests are high due to risk - Honesty, best way is to join MBB/T2 and get a sponsorship (or any firm that sponsor for you)

I currently make about 160k and if JPM would give me a high draw for the first 3 years to build, and if it’s feasible to sustain that 160+ there.
