Clairmont Real Estate

Foreign Investors

With the fall of the American Dollar and the weakening US economy, the US real estate market is seeing an increased influx of foreign investors. Especially investors with funds in Canadian Dollars, British Pounds and EUROs are finding that real estate in the US has become a much more viable investment.

There are no restrictions on foreigners owning real estate in the USA.

San Francisco has long been the dream of many Europeans. Owning real estate in San Francisco, one of the most if not the most expensive city in the US, is now, thanks to a strong EURO, much more affordable.

Single Family Homes in the better neighborhoods of San Francisco start at around $1m (approx. EUR 677,000). Condominiums start at around $700,000 (approx. EUR 475,000). The sunnier the neighborhood the higher the price in San Francisco.

Please use the San Francisco Property Search function to search for properties in San Francisco. The best neighborhoods are located in Districts 5 (Twin Peaks / Noe Valley / Corona Heights / Buena Vista Park / Glen Park / Dolores Heights / Ashbury Heights), 7 (Marina / Cow Hollow / Pacific Heights / Presidio Heights) and 8 (Nob Hill / Telegraph Hill / Russian Hill / North Beach / North Waterfront).
