What is causing a Loss of Foreign Interest in Real Estate in USA?

The real estate market has been a real center of interest for foreign investing individuals and groups. People from different areas of the globe see US as a dreamland where people have basic rights of necessities and ability of its society to absorb different nations. During the recession of 2007 a lot of people became jobless. As consumer financing is very much effective in the US and banking sector and insurance companies earn a moderate income from it. As a result of joblessness the ability of buyer fell dramatically which in turn reduced the demand for real estate; as people lost ability to buy property. A lot of construction companies projects which were at boom before the recession couldn’t get the buyers for their finished and semi-finished projects. When the demand fell and supply is adequate the price level inevitably suffered a great loss. This was an opportunity for the foreign investors to catch on.

A lot of investors capitalized the opportunity and made heavy investment in the real state in different states of the US. Especially states like Phoenix, Miami and San Frisco saw a heavy influx of foreign investment. But everything has a ceiling to it. With the passage of time the real estate become a hot cake owing to foreign investment. Raised prices of real estate In the last one and a half year the US economy has somewhat recovered and has been going steady. The economy GNP and GDP shows a positive trend. Jobs are created and this trend is likely to follow in the coming years. With the money in hand buyer has once again shown interest in the real estate. The things are improving for the real estate stakeholders. The trend of prices in the real estate industry and market has been inclining. Foreign investors have now been shying away from the real estate market investment mainly because of this reason.

The real estate is not as good an investment for foreign investment groups as was previously thought. Most people due to the increased prices have even resorted to selling their property which they bought during the peak recession years. The prices of the houses which had which had fallen to the lowest by 2012 are now as high back as the pre-recession value and prices. Credibility of the Dollar Secondly the foreign investors has deteriorated interest toward US dollar. Though the Dollar is used as the reserve currency in the world and all around the globe trade is carried through it, yet the recession and following years have led to a collapse in confidence regarding the credibility of the Dollar. As US internally has to fix its debt problem. If US dollar falls people would have lose their investment. Have reservations about the credibility of the Dollar has been steadily leading people away from investing in the real estate market of the United States. Although the economy seems to be back on track for the track yet confidence needs to be restored in the US Dollar.
