Foreign buyers purchased $45.3 billion worth of U.S. existing homes from April 2025 through March 2026, according to the National Association of REALTORS 2026 International Transactions in U.S. “Foreign buyers from Canada and Mexico—countries that border the U.S.—bought the most housing units. Florida, with its beaches and favorable winter climate, continues to be the top state to draw foreign buyers,” said Yun. International buyers purchased 67,100 properties, the second-lowest level since NAR began tracking foreign buyer activity in 2009. Foreign buyers who lived abroad purchased 29,500 homes (44% of all foreign purchases) with a total dollar volume of $23.5 billion.
