3 Billions Introduction In its 2016 National Association of REALTORS Profile of International Activity in Residential Real Estate, NAR estimated that foreign buyers purchased $102.6 billion of residential property from April 2015 March 2016 which is 7 percent of the $1.2 trillion of total existing home sales during the same period. Foreign buyers who reside outside of the United States (Type A) accounted for 41 percent of the dollar volume, while foreign buyers who are recent immigrants (less than two years) or who are temporarily residing in the United States for business, work, education, or vacation purposes (Type B) accounted for an even larger fraction, 59 percent. 120 Dollar Volume of Foreign Buyer Residential Property Purchases Non-resident (Type A) Resident (Type B) Note: Based on transactions in the 12 months ending March of each year. The continued expansion of trade and investment among countries and the accompanying mobility and migration of people opens greater opportunities for transacting with international clients. Cultural affinity, foreign language capabilities, and an awareness of business trends are important in cultivating relationships with international clients and bringing the transaction to a successful conclusion. This Report provides state-level business and economic data that can be used to enhance the knowledge and expertise of those seeking to conduct and assist international real estate transactions with non- residents and recent immigrants to the United States. NAR s Commercial & Global Services department has the expertise to address specific questions related to international transactions as well as the ability to direct specific questions to other NAR resources.
