Builders Are Nervous, Foreign Buyers Are Back — What It All Means for Housing

The vibes are… complicated.   Housing inventory is up. Mortgage rates are hovering near 7%. Builders are nervous — like, “we’re pausing land purchases” nervous.   But then—surprise! Foreign buyers dropped $56 billion on U.S. homes this past year, with Miami and Florida right in the thick of it.   In this episode, I break down what’s really happening with new construction, why builders are slowing down (and what it means for buyers), and why international demand is suddenly surging back at levels we haven’t seen since the 2010s.   Plus: what this all means for affordability, local housing markets, investor strategy, and why Powell’s every move still has the real estate world holding its breath.   Spoiler: It’s not just about rates anymore.   If you’re a homeowner, builder, investor, agent, or just housing-curious, this one matters.   If you ever want to buy or sell a property anywhere in the world, our team would be honored to help get you to your next destination.   Until next time, stay curious, stay hungry, and as always… stay ALL IN!   Amit Bhuta COMPASS ALL IN Miami Group Licensed Real Estate Agent   (305) 439-3031 Mobile [email protected] ALLinMiami.com
