There are multiple opportunities for Indian investors in U.S. real estate since they can invest for capital growth and good rental returns. Investments in U.S. and UK have appreciated from 20% to 50%, over the last 5 years. The rental returns are around 6 to 7% as compared to 2% in India. And there is another added advantage that some of the countries also offer residency and citizenship.
International markets are extremely regulated and there is very little risk of default or delayed projects. However the resident Indian investor has to be careful about foreign exchange fluctuations, high maintenance costs in case of the real estate property is not rented out and tax implications in case the property is rented out or sold. The opportunities are healthy capital growth, good rental returns and residency/citizenship, in case of investments in a few countries.
