“It’s safe to say we’re in the midst of a global real estate bull market. According to the Knight Frank Global House Price Index, the value of homes internationally rose by 8.4 percent in 2013, representing the highest annual increase since 1995. Although it’s a global phenomenon, US buyers — especially New Yorkers — are particularly active abroad. While much of this money is pouring into established urban centers, experts describe Americans as more entrepreneurial about snapping up property — willing to invest in everything from a private island in Antigua to vast farms in Zambia if the price (and property) is right.”
