What's the Scoop

现在的market怎么了?cash offer的cash 都是从中国来的吗?etc.
时间有限,我的思绪总是在我typing之前。有很多东西要写。正在努力跟上。。。

数据: San Diego median price for single-family homes up 14 percent over last February, while condos, townhomes see jump of 26 percent.

引用: National Association of Realtors predicts 2013's housing price will be on steady rise, while interest rate will raise gradually over the years. The near future inflation is going to put both the housing price and interest rate under pressure.

数据: A survey of REALTORS® released in June 2012 showed that sales to international clients accounted for nearly 5 percent of all U.S. sales. NAR Research estimates those sales—made in the 12 months ending in March 2012— totaled $82.5 billion in volume. Even at only 5 percent of all sales, that’s still a big chunk of business.

Favorable exchange rates against the dollar have enabled bargain-hungry foreign buyers to get a lot more home for the money. Compared to Europe where the average apartment is 700 square feet, US. properties are twice the size, and often for half the price.

As of March 2012, China (including Hong Kong), Canada, Mexico, India, and the United Kingdom accounted for 55 percent of all international transactions in the United States. Canada accounted for 24 percent of international sales, while China accounted for 11 percent, up from 9 percent in 2011. Mexico was third with 8 percent of sales, and India and the U.K. each accounted for 6 percent. That was a year ago's data, the most recent year's international sales will only be higher.
