This is a comment by a real estate agents in Seattle.
The majority of cash transactions are the result of foreign investment. As a
real estate broker in the greater Seattle Washington area, I have noticed
that, most of the cash transactions are from Chinese nationals. It seems we
are seeing a repeat of the Japanese real estate boom of the 90's. If
interest rates climb above 6% (and they will), the market will come to a
screeching halt and prices will drop another 15 to 20%. |

Japanese was getting to the peak of commercial real estate market in US.
Chinese are getting to the bottom of real estate market.
I was bidding a 3 bedroom/3 bath room town house for around 110K last week.
It was built in 2004.
Remember, It costs around 80K for a mercede.

发帖数: 4342 | 9 Not too bad, you can rent for 1150-1300/Month.
Real estate tax + association due is around $300/Month. They are in a very
nice area. So the return is very attractive.

发帖数: 62 | 17 那个agent的话如果正确的话，估计也只适用于他熟悉的seattle地区。你给的新闻里说
的是“The number of first-time buyers fell last month to the lowest
percentage in nearly two years, while all-cash deals have doubled and now
account for one-third of sales.”。从第一句可以判断中国人（非在美定居的）还
是比较少的，因为如果他们买房，应该多数是第一套房。
现在为什么这么多人付cash买房，我想还是因为interest rate太低，他们有其他渠道
融资或者觉得存在银行也不值，但是不愿付较高的mortgage rate。
