I object to the OP’s premise about ‘investing in America’
How long before we have to move to EY
Should we rent in USA and buy in EY………………………………
I don’t consider buy a piece of property as investing in a country. You are investing in the real estate. Governments come and go, the land remains forever.
To quote a currently controversial piece of American culture, Gone With The Wind:
“Why, land is the only thing in the world worth workin’ for, worth fightin’ for, worth dyin’ for, because it’s the only thing that lasts.”
My investment in America is my participation in elections and politics. It is not my purchases and holdings of real estate (which I have in multiple countries).
The investment in a home for your family (as opposed to continuing to pay rent), is generally an investment in your family and its future security. No longer at the mercy of landlords and rent increases, etc.
That is the same no matter where in the world you live.
