Phoenix real estate a big draw for . . . Canadians, eh? - Phoenix Real Estate-Phoenix Homes For Sale

Phoenix real estate a big draw for . . . Canadians, eh? - Phoenix Real Estate-Phoenix Homes For Sale:
"USA Today reported today that Canadians have now surpassed Californians as top out-of-state buyers of Phoenix-area real estate. The Canadian dollar is gaining, up from an average of 80 cents on the U.S. dollar in 2005 to 97 cents last week. At the same time, home prices in the Phoenix area – as we know – have dropped significantly from their peak in early 2007.

Those two influential points have made for an enticing real estate market for Canadians looking to get out of the cold weather and enjoy everything Phoenix has to offer: sunshine, golf courses, and a ton of tourist options to fill their days. Florida, California and Texas remain the top destinations for international homebuyers but, USA Today reports, Arizona is gaining.

Canadian homebuyers in Maricopa County made up a larger share than California buyers for eight of the past nine months, according to the Information Market,"
