Was planning to put an offer. With premium processing gone, I'm thinking they are next going to create trouble for extensions beyond 6 year too. This has got me worried and I'm hesitant to buy an house atm. Anyone in the same boat? What are your thoughts?
Time to packup. Invest in India.
Are you buying low and selling high?
What do you mean? I want to buy an house as my primary residence. If I have to go back because of issues in my Visa extension, I don't want to lock in all my savings in a house I m not living
Just commenting that you buying when houses are expensive. Usually not a good time to buy. Wait for recession.
There are way too many people in Bay Area from India and china. Don't buy it now. There will be huge changes in H1B policy and many people has to find other alternatives. Golden days of H1B are gone. I don't see any reason why companies needs to hire only in USA.
I'm not so sure - the way tech companies handle tech debt and beat their chest about disruption and innovation - they are a bunch of spineless cowards. We'll see - in spite of everything I like Bay area and I hope something good comes out of this
I think if any changes happen they will favor high skilled immigrants, if you are not a body shop worker it may be good for you
Thing is it will stop a lot of home buyers and possibly cause some to panick sell . If this stays we will be looking at slowdowns until airbnb or Uber iPos
Wait..
Wait for this to settle down. Invest in something you are not physically tied to
Don't buy a house unless you have a PR.
Don’t buy. You might be deported for no mistake of yours and your assets seized.
