Why are Billionaires Buffett and Trump Bullish on USA Real Estate Right Now? When interviewed, Donald Trump said a couple of weeks ago, that NOW is a great time to get into real estate – and he specifically pointed to houses.
Fellow billionaire, Warren Buffett, appeared on CNBC a couple of months ago and essentially said the same thing. In fact, he said if there was an efficient way to do it, he’d like to buy 200,000 single family homes!
You may or may not agree with them at first blush, but when two billionaires (neither of whom are trying to sell you houses) both say the same thing, it’s probably worth taking a closer look, don’t you think?
These are the simple facts of USA property:
1. 40%, 50%, 60% below build replacement cost.
2. 70% below Peak Market Value & 35% across the entire country.
3. Repossessed property being bought below TODAY’s market value.
4. Rental yields from 10% to 45%.
5. Strong rental demand.
6. Partners with a portfolio of over 1100 properties to prove rental demand, yields and vacancies. To be confident in USA you have to make sure the numbers are based on evidence!
7. Setup of a LLC, Bank Account and Income tax number in USA.
8. Find out how you can turn your great investment into a vehicle to help you get a
Green Card, passport or residency.

4. Oracle of Omaha – Warren Buffett
Warren Buffett says "Along with
equities, single-family homes in USA
are a very attractive investment
right now.“
Appearing live on CNBC's Squawk Box,
27th Feb 2012, Buffett tells Becky
Quick he'd buy up "a couple hundred
thousand" single family homes if it
were practical to do so.
"If held for a long period of time and
purchased at low rates, Buffett says
USA houses are even better than
stocks."
