I have noticed a recent trend of Canadian investors making the news in U.S. publications. I had previously posted that in some U.S. markets Canadians are currently making up the majority of buyers. Further evidence of this was recently published in National Real Estate Investor. In the article "Apartment Investment Sours in Phoenix, Florida Markets" it stated that a recent trend in the Phoenix market is the arrival of Canadian buyers to purchase 20 or so condo units unsold from projects of about 200 units. It noted that discounts of 30% to 40% are achieved on some of these bulk sales.
