Miami is one of the world’s premier international hubs. As a testament to the city’s international appeal, a Trulia analysis of home searches by foreign buyers found that of the 16 countries looking for U.S. homes reviewed, nearly half chose Miami as a top destination.
The listing portal used search data from Feb. to April 2016 to determine where international buyers were hoping to find a first or second home. Of the origin countries mentioned in Trulia’s report, Miami was a top 5 destination for seven separate countries, and the top destination for three – France, Italy and Venezuela.
Of the 35 U.S. markets mentioned among all top destinations, only Los Angeles was represented more than Miami, with eight countries selecting the city as a top destination.
