U.S. Housing Discounts Emerge for Foreign Buyers Amid Dollar Weakness

BTCCSquare news:
The U.S. housing market is offering unexpected discounts to international buyers as the dollar weakens against major currencies. Redfin data reveals median home prices fell 9.6% in ruble terms, with similar discounts for buyers using Swiss francs (8%), Japanese yen (7.6%), and euros (5.6%). This currency advantage comes as foreign purchases surge 44%, contrasting with domestic affordability challenges.
Dollar depreciation accelerated in 2024, dropping 10% year-to-date amid tariff uncertainties and Treasury market volatility. The trend creates arbitrage opportunities for capital-rich international investors, particularly in premium markets where crypto-native buyers often compete with traditional foreign purchasers.
