I received interest for renting my SFH from a French citizen, currently residing in Asia working for a major oil and gas firm. 

By the way, we are in Mexico currently, and three months ago, we were in SE Asia! 

I don't live in the US, rather in Asia.

The Nikkei and other major exchanges in Asia are down between 3% and 4% on Monday . . . will the bloodletting continue here?

i moved to los angeles county fairly recently from nyc however my heart is forever in asia, my mom's ancestors' homeland. well my dad's a caribbean islander of mostly native amerindian descent but i find the caribbean is heavily europeanized, even with the afro & latino majorities. so, i tend to vacay and expend humanitarian efforts moreso in asia than here in the 'new world'.so if i could move anywhere within USA it would have to be even more 'West'ward til proximal to the Far East - HAWAII, GUAM AND OR MICRONESIA(!)

The obvious ones that everyone knows all too well were CA, NV, AZ, FL and my state MI (due primarily to the big three automakers), but it is my understanding (or at least perhaps my misguided belief) that some states were hardly affected at all, such as IA, KS, NE, WY. 

Australia sells non-renewable resources as its main export to China and Canada doesn't sell much to china instead more Chinese/Asia invest in property in Vancouver, also in LNG companies and resource companies in BC etc. 

We have extensive experience making these in Asia., and their a hit.  

I am a US expat currently living in Asia and I do file my taxes with the IRS annually.

I am a Financier/Investor, whose primary objective is to finance any project in the areas of Real Estate, Construction and any other meaningful businesses in Europe, America, Asia and Africa.
