Over the past two years, cross-border capital flows into the U.S. have risen dramatically and in 2015 foreign investment in Florida commercial real estate hit its highest rate in at least nine years, according to a new report by CBRE Group, Inc.
Last year, Florida ranked fourth in the nation in terms of cross-border investment volume and the state improved to rank third in Q1 2016. Foreign buying is projected to cool slightly in 2016 relative to 2015, but remains elevated relative to historical rates.
