Buying Real Estate in the US - New Hampshire

       For foreign investors looking to buy real estate in the United States, there hasn't been a better time in decades. With the dollar at it's lowest value in decades, and real estate prices in the US down by more than 12% over the last year, vacation homes in the United States are a bargain not to be ignored. According to the National Association of REALTORS®, just the currency difference will provide a 30% discount on average for European, Japanese, and many other investors.

While many foreign real estate buyers have been flocking to New York and Florida, many have also discovered the unique beauty of New Hampshire's Mount Washington Valley, and the advantages of owning a vacation home in a 4-season resort area. The brilliant colors of fall in the White Mountains are incredible against the backdrop of majestic mountains and sparkling rivers. While foliage is at its peak, this is the busiest 2-3 weeks of the year, and perfect for owning or renting your vacation home.

Summer is a virtual paradise, whether you're on a lake, river, or mountainside retreat. It's simply a gorgeous area, bustling with the activities vacationers love. ...golf, boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, bicycling. With North Conway central to the valley, there's always easy access to some of the best discount shopping outlets in New England. And being in New Hampshire, they're also tax free. Fine dining and entertainment abound through the area.

Come winter, luxury trailside homes at Bearfoot Creek are prime properties. With world-class skiing throughout the area, vacation homes and condos on the market are ripe for the taking. Developments like Beechwoods At Intervale provide fantastic mountain scenery at affordable prices. Nordic Village and Attitash Mountain Village are both fabulous resorts with pools, spas and countless amenities. And, these are just a few of the many resorts and developments designed for skiers, golfers, and living in the mountains of New Hampshire.
