For many immigrant families, during the waiting period for U.S. immigration processing, or before they have settled in the U.S. after obtaining a green card, "investing in U.S. real estate" is often a choice they make for investment allocation. So, what are the reasons that prompt them to consider investing in real estate before "settling" in the U.S.?
U.S. real estate is one of the important proofs of a "strong connection" to the U.S.
Before obtaining a U.S. passport, green card holders are merely visa holders who can live and work in the U.S. long-term. Therefore, for many green card holders, it is necessary to periodically return to the U.S. to maintain this status.
Each time a green card holder enters the U.S., customs checks whether they maintain a "strong connection" to the U.S. This strong connection includes various factors such as employment, income, and taxes in the U.S., and owning real estate is certainly one of the important proofs. Therefore, holding U.S. real estate is beneficial for green card holders in maintaining their status.
Secondly, owning U.S. real estate helps green card investors establish and improve their credit history in the U.S. The credit score in the U.S. is crucial for future living, as it is required for purchasing cars, renting homes, and obtaining loans. If one owns U.S. real estate, having a stable tax history, repayment records, or quality property management records will be beneficial for accumulating credit scores.
Provides stable cash flow, can support education, and can cope with future exchange rate fluctuations
First, if the property purchased is an investment property, there will be stable income each year; secondly, having cash-generating assets in the U.S. is beneficial, whether it is for living expenses for children studying in the U.S. or for daily living expenses while residing in the U.S., which can provide good passive income; finally, due to exchange rate instability, if a portion of assets is allocated in the U.S. in advance and can generate cash flow, it will greatly reduce the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations.
The U.S. dollar holds a core position in global foreign exchange reserves, and its hedging properties, large scale, and high liquidity make it more stable during significant market fluctuations. Based on historical data from the past sixty years, U.S. real estate prices have steadily increased, fundamentally due to supply and demand: a shortage of 5.5 million housing units combined with a continuously increasing population and housing demand. Currently, the pace of new home construction still cannot keep up with the increase in population and households.
The anti-inflation properties of physical assets: Historical data research indicates a positive correlation between real estate and inflation; in an inflationary environment, real estate is one of the best products to combat inflation.
Self-occupied housing is a necessity, following the principle of "buy first, then upgrade"
For many immigrant families, purchasing a self-occupied home is a necessity for future settlement in the U.S. However, there is a misconception that one should "first buy a rental property and then live in it later when they go to the U.S."
The differences between self-occupied homes and investment properties in the U.S. are significant, whether in terms of price, location, surrounding amenities, or management models. A more rational choice is to first purchase a property with stable rental income and significant potential, and once settled in the U.S., conduct on-site inspections to choose a self-occupied home that one desires, adhering to the principle of "buy first, then upgrade."
Before obtaining green card status, allocate U.S. dollar assets to achieve reasonable tax savings
Assuming that after obtaining a green card, one purchases U.S. assets, this money must be explained regarding tax payment; however, before obtaining a green card, the U.S. assets purchased do not require proof of tax payment status since the buyer is still a non-U.S. tax resident.
If you want to invest but do not know where to start, the simplest answer is to follow the big companies, follow the population, and follow employment trends. Because only where there are companies, people, and jobs is there housing demand and potential. In recent years, nearly 200 companies have been relocating to Texas or expanding their projects, gathering many Fortune 500 companies. Texas is gradually being recognized as the entrepreneurial state, technology state, and the state with the highest employment in the U.S. Texas has the highest GDP growth in the nation and the highest job growth, becoming Time Magazine's "Leader in Economic Development". Nowadays, Texas real estate has become a top choice for many investors.
