U.S. Real Estate Deals Snapped Up by Foreign Buyers

No American could "buy" a house that easy. Yes, make it EASY for the foriegner & NOT the American citizen. Way to go America.

Hey Steve,

No problem on the 'way to go Americ". We are getting so used to being screwed by our elected officials we have just become to accept it as second nature. Just so you know Steve, this used to be the Home Of the Brave, and The Land Of the Free. Sadly, fkng peckerheads like G W Bush and B H Obama have a different agenda. I hope the rest of the world will have a great time occupying us and picking up the crumbs of what once was a great Republic whch stood for 225 years of what the rest of the world aspired to be.

Our government doesn't care about the Constitution anymore. Who gives a crap that a foreign body buying sovereign land is constitutionally illegal.

Antioch ? hum next to the oil refinery or swiming in the bay so polluted by lead from the boat from the navy that used to be moth ball across than the fish are so loaded with lead they no longer swim. But one Man trash is someone else treasure . Asucker born every minute .

I wonder if the Native Americans thought we were terrorists?

I suppose is Ok for foreigners to buy property here in U.S.A. AS LONG AS THOSE DON'T INTENT TO CHANGE THE FOUNDATION OF THIS COUNTRY!!!
We Have Freedom to Persue A Dream, Have Opportunity, Consideration and Responsability to Become A Citizen, Learn The History & The Language"ENGLISH".

REMEMBER ALL OF YOU,S AS YOU,S DRIVE YOUR JAPANEESE CARS, SHOP AT WAL-MART AND EVERYTHING THAT YOU BUY NOT MADE IN AMERICA, YOU,S ALL WHINE AND BLAME OTHERS BUT YOU ARE THE ONES MAKING THE PURCHASES, GREED-SELFISHNESS IS AMERICANS TRACE.

T-rex most americans have not figured it out yet regarding what is happening in Washington. how long can you spend with out having creditors pounce on you. What do you think China is going to do? someone must stop this insanity! Mr"O" will also give amnesty to all illegals, that is sure to give him a big boost for presidency in 2012.

By the time we "get fed up enough" it will be long too late to put Humpty Dumpty back together again! It is preposterous that foreigners come over here armed with millions in CASH, and are able to acquire and own very important and vast amounts of real estate.

There should be a law against this.... and right away!! Buying a home or two is one thing....Buying tens of millions of dollars of prime real estate land couldn't be more stupid on our part....Unless you talk about the trillions being wasted on illegals, people getting social security that can't even speak English and never paid into the social security system. WHY? WHY CAN'T WE SEND THEM HOME if they are undocumented. Why can't it be a dangerous thing for them to come here in case they get sick (and have no coverage in U.S.) or get hungry... we will provide only enough food to get back home.... etc... Why can't we change things within six months? All legal immigrants are welcome..but they have to come through properly, have a sponsor, etc... NO foreigners buying vast sums of property with cash.

linda - where does this happen? where do you live?

The biggest problems we have are stupidity and greed, and this is just why these things are happening. They aren't going to buy my property simply because I am not going to sell it and I have no mortgage so it is not going to be foreclosed.

And if you are so gung ho for America, WTF don't you capitalize it. You show a total lack of respect and should get out. That should help with at least one problem and probably both.
