Is it appropriate to buy a house in the United States now? Can it quickly increase in value as an investment?

Only represents my personal opinion.

First of all, if you are not short of money, it must be easy to sell, and if you are short of money, it must be easy to rent.

It is unlikely that American houses will appreciate rapidly. According to the market conditions in recent years, ordinary residential houses ($350,000 to $500,000) have hardly changed. What has been increasing in value are luxury homes above 1 million to 5,000 US dollars. Last year, luxury homes above 5 million US dollars probably increased by nearly 20%, mainly because after the financial crisis, international bigwigs invested their money in the United States again. However, even during the financial crisis At that time, there was not much room for price reduction for high-end houses. If you use it as an investment, there is no point in buying a second-hand house. Generally speaking, when Chinese people buy houses in the United States, most of them rent them out. For example, the house price is 300,000, and the monthly rent is 3,000 (usually only 2,500). After tax and maintenance fees are included, it takes about 15 years to get a house for free. For houses in the city center, the closer they are to schools (elementary and secondary schools) and parks in the United States, the more expensive they are, but they are also the easiest to increase in value and retain their value.

If you want to increase value quickly, it is better to buy in Beijing or Shanghai. The U.S. government has very strict controls on housing prices and rents. If housing prices rise sharply, the American people will definitely take to the streets to make trouble. They don’t care about that. It's time to change the ruling party that won't raise housing prices.
