House Plans - A recent article from the AP discussed a recent surge in foreign investment in the housing market. That in increasing numbers, foreign investors are taking the places of first time home buyers. A boost in home sales would definitely be helpful to the economy, but do we want foreign investors in our homes so to speak? With the dollar weakening as of late, I believe we will see a larger increase in this type of foreign investment. This could help get the market back on track so for that I say thank you foreign investors!
