Who’s buying properties in Florida?
某些国外投资者可能会认为被银行没收的物业（distressed property）具有巨大的投资价值，有些人以为可以在不到五年的时间里将这些物业倒手，并从中获大的利润，但这么做并非易事。 图片：CBC/Radio-Canada特允大中报使用。
在2011年，华裔郭女士以$110,000元的价格在佛罗里达州东北部购买了一套公寓，然后将其出租给当地大学生。郭通过在加拿大的开户行用自己的住房进行再融资，以现金购买了这套公寓。
In 2011, Grace Guo, a Chinese Canadian bought a condo unit in NE Florida for $110,000, which has been rented out to the local university students. Guo purchased the property with cash by refinancing her residential home through her home branch in Canada.
通过每月$1100元的租金收入，郭可以抵消包括按揭贷款、维修费和管理费在内的成本。郭表示：“我预期物业价值将会上涨，最终能实现一定的投资收益。”
Through $1100 monthly rental income, Guo can balance out the costs that include mortgage, maintenance and management fees. “I expect that the property value will go up eventually so that I can enjoy some investment income,” says Guo.
与郭在佛州购房类似，多伦多的张素在奥兰多购买了一套公寓，其租金收入除了足以支付成本支出之外，还可以为她提供每年两个星期的休假。刚于一月份在公寓度假一个星期的张称：“这时是在那里度假的最好时机。”
Similar to Guo, Torontonian Su Zhang bought a condo unit in Orlando, which, on top of rental income that could cover her costs, also offered her two weeks of vacation time a year. “It was a great time of getting down there,” says Zhang, who just spent a week on vacation in Jan.
以度假天堂著称的佛罗里达州又称阳光之州，连接墨西哥湾和大沼泽地，其以美丽的海滩、游乐公园和多姿多彩的环境气候闻名于世。美国的经济危机导致佛罗里达州房地产市场的销量和房价遭受沉重打击。从2005至2010年，独立屋的销量下降31%，房价下跌42%。
