Buy a US House, Get a 3-Year Visa: Sen. Schumer
A new Senate bill would help spur demand in U.S. housing by offering foreign
investors a three-year "homeowners visa" if they invest half a million
dollars cash and stay in the house for 180 days, co-sponsor Sen. Charles
Schumer told CNBC Monday.
"We all know housing is dragging down our economy and the problem is basic
supply and demand," said the New York Democrat.
The bill, co-sponsored with Mike Lee, a Utah Republican, "simply increases
the demand. There are literally millions of people around the world, many of
them retirees, some not, who would like to live here in America."
The residency requirement will force these investors to pay federal and
property taxes, Schumer pointed out, and is intended to allay immigration
concerns.
"We have to straighten out our immigration policy," Schumer said. "
Immigrants are good for America. We should not just have people who cross
the border illegally."
His visa bill is "not a path to citizenship," he stressed. But those who
come using the visa can renew it every three years "as long as they stay in
the U.S."
In the same interview real estate mogul Richard Lefrak, head of the Lefrak
Organization, who said he first suggested the "homeowners visa" idea three
years ago, said the bill's provision to make it easier for Chinese citizens
to visit the U.S. will draw more monied entrepreneurs, which will prompt
more U.S. investment.
He said that "40 percent of the wealthy people in China would like to leave.
I mean they’re going to want to come here and they’re going to want to
spend money and start businesses and buy the homes."
Same for the Brazilians, said investor Wilbur Ross, CEO of WL Ross & Co. "
You're already seeing it in Florida," he said, noting that 20 percent of all
the residential real estate sales in Miami last year was by Brazilians.
He and Lefrak said the residency requirement may scare some investors away
but acknowledged having that provision makes the bill politically palatable.
"If we tap some of the wealth in Asia, think how it would help housing" in
California, Las Vegas, Florida and other troubled real estate markets,
Lefrak said. "Any bill that has the support of Sen. Schumer and Sen. Lee, on
opposite sides of the political spectrum, means there’s some merit to the
idea." | i**********2
