International Activity In The United States Market

International Activity In The United States Market #cbarsteve #mshomestore The economic environment during the 12-month period April 2017 — March 2018 provided both opportunities and challenges for foreign buyers interested in purchasing U.S. residential property. Amid tight supply, solid employment growth, and historically low interest rates, home prices continued to increase strongly in the United States. Measured in local currencies of foreign buyers, the U.S. home price appreciation was tempered by the weaker U.S. dollar for some countries such as Canada and China. Sustained employment growth in the United States bolstered home buying by domestic residents who competed against foreign buyers for the limited supply of homes on the market. Highlights Foreign buyers purchased $121.0 billion of residential property from April 2017—March 2018, a decrease from $153 billion during the previous 12-month period (April 2...

Incorporating A Business In The United States

Incorporating in the U.S. - Factors to Consider As a non-U.S. citizen, incorporating a business in the United States is generally similar to the procedure required for a U.S. resident. Because U.S. citizenship and residency are not necessary, non-U.S. citizens are welcome to start or expand on American soil without jumping through any more hoops than a U.S.-born business owner.

There are a host of other details to factor into the equation — including differences in language and business practices— but following are the main ones to consider when crossing borders and oceans. How do you incorporate in the United States? Company incorporation in the United States is...

How Can Steve Freeman and Coldwell Banker Alfonso Realty Help Create Your Awesomeness

Why is Coldwell Banker Alfonso Realty and  Steve Freeman  the home for awesomeness and other real estate brands just merely innovative? Take a look. What is innovation? The Oxford Dictionary defines innovation as two simple words: something new. That's it. Something new. A new product. A new method. A new idea. That's innovation, but the word has lost its meaning. Innovation once conjured up thoughts of Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, or the Wright Brothers. It was a term reserved for trailblazers like Steve Jobs, Marie Curie or Steven Spielberg. But today, in our industry, innovation has been demoted to a trite adjective used to bolster the mundane into a thinly veiled disguise of something grand. Real estate declares innovation at the launch of a website that has gotten a facelift, an app that does the same thing as its competition, or a brokerage that decides they no longer need a physical office. When everyone lays claim to innovation, it ceases to be the power...
