Why Invest in the U.S.?
Better capitalized, more liquid and greater diversification

Affordability was determined by comparing median income for the area to average expenses, including an average monthly mortgage payment (80 percent LTV, 30-year term at a fixed 6.5 percent interest rate). Rent strength was calculated by taking into account gross rental income, the prevailing vacancy rate for rental homes and average ownership expenses. Affordability and rent strength have been ranked on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the most desirable.
