Foreign buyers remain one of the most misunderstood — and most lucrative — niches in U.S. residential real estate. The 2026 International Transactions in U.S. Residential Real Estate report gives you the authoritative data you need to understand who's buying, where they're buying, and how they're paying, so you can position yourself as the expert international clients trust.

Produced by the National Association of REALTORS® Research Group and based on responses from nearly 5,000 real estate professionals, this report tracks a full 12 months of transactions with international clients (April 2025–March 2026) and delivers market intelligence you can't get anywhere else.

Inside this report, you'll discover:

• The total dollar volume and number of U.S. homes purchased by foreign buyers this year — and how the trend is shifting
• The top countries of origin and the specific states where their clients are buying
• How foreign buyers finance their purchases, including all-cash trends that can reshape your negotiating strategy
• What international clients actually want — vacation homes, rentals, primary residences — and the property types they prefer
• The leading sources of leads and referrals among agents who successfully close with foreign clients
• Why some international clients walk away — and how to keep the deal alive

Whether you're pursuing the CIPS designation, building a global referral network, or simply want to win more business in a competitive market, this report equips you with the credible, current data to serve international clients with confidence.
