Trump and his career

Donald Trump the American business man, a bombastic real estate mogul, celebrity and of course the new candidate for the 2016 republican nomination for president of the United States is creating furor and controversy with his outspoken expression and political views. He is ratings, he sells.

The native of New York City who owns, develops and invests in real estate around the world is also a pop culture icon of our time and his role as a politician is giving him much more world renown. His experience in the real estate industry is vast and his experience in the field may come handy for his government if he gets elected president of the United States.

The conservative presidential candidate is a smart businessman. He works hard, and does whatever he can to pay the minimal amount of taxes to President Barack Obama. And his plan to completely restructure America’s tax code assures that every American will end up paying lower taxes.

Trump’s real estate in Miami

The billionaire owns several investments in the Miami area such as the Doral Gold and Spa Resort (www.trumphotelcollection.com/miami/) which he bought while the property was in bankruptcy in a sale for $150 million and and the Trump family has invested $250 million to complete a dramatic restoration recapturing the iconic resort’s early grandeur. The 700 room resort and golf course was a significant investment by Trump which he promised it was going to be the finest golf resort in the country. Trump’s brand name appears in several new condominiums and hotels in Miami and Fort Lauderdale.

Trump’s Tax Plan

Trump’s appeal is said to be his strive for giving voice to the angry masses. And even though he doesn’t seem to be the perfect fit to fight social suffocation his new tax proposals seem to have some tint of hope for the economy, which in the long run, may influence the Real Estate market in Florida. The tax proposals consist of the following:

Anyone who is single and earns less than $25,000 would not owe any income tax
Those making up to $30,000 will pay one percent.
Income from $30,000 to $100,000 results in a flat five percent.
$100,000 to $1,000,000 income will be taxed at 10 percent.
On $1 million or above will be taxed 15 percent.

Trump said his tax plan would hike taxes on the wealthy and would eliminate federal income taxes for millions of Americans creating many jobs and opportunities for others. Trump voices the waste, fraud and abuse of the federal government and the shameful way America’s government spends your hard earned tax dollars.

Trump told reporters that the plan would personally ‘’cost me a fortune’’. But he did not directly answer how much he would pay in taxes under his proposal. He also stated that prime real estate at good price in our current economy is hard to get.

‘’With more money in their pockets Americans will be more likely to invest in real estate and keep paying their mortgages’’, Richard Paz from Paz Global Real Estate Investments assures. Paz Global is a Real Estate Investment company located in Florida which has lived through the different phases of the economy and cycles that have affected the real estate market in Miami. Richard Paz hopes that the new tax plan would be a new true engine for the South Florida Real Estate market.

Canadian Dollar recent history

The Canadian dollar is dropping fast, and more than one investment bank is predicting it will hit a record low in 2016.

Recently he valued of the Canadian “loonie” dropped below 70 cents U.S. for the first time in 13 years, and experts expected it to drop to 59 cents U.S. by the end of the year. This would be a record low for the loonie, falling below its 2002 trough of just below 62 cents U.S. to the American greenback.

What causes the Canadian dollar to decline?

Over the last six months, the value of the Canadian dollar (loonie) has declined by approximately 12 percent. Simultaneously, the price of oil fell by approximately 48 percent. The positive correlation between the two variables (the Canadian dollar-US dollar exchange rate, and oil prices) is high and has existed for a long time.

That’s not good news for our neighbors to the north (or the U.S. companies that make money exporting to them) who have been suffering the increment in the cost of living, since the country imports about 80% of its fresh produce.

In the real estate sector this represents a limitation for buyers since they are more cautious about expanding their money in moments when the currency has dropped down so low. The Depressed value of the Canadian currency against the US dollar is not only discouraging some Canadians from buying Florida Homes but also encouraging others to sell.

Why is this an opportunity for Canadian Citizens who bought property in the U.S. ?

Inversely this situation represents a great opportunity for Canadian owners of U.S.property to sell. Canadians who bought property in Florida in early 2008, 2011 and 2013 when the Canadian dollar was dancing par or below the US dollar will have a great return in their investment if they decided to sell their homes now. At the current exchange rate the Canadian dollar or loonie is worth approximately 75 cents, and conversely, a U.S. dollar is worth between $1.30 and $1.40 Canadian dollars. This can only mean something: is a great time to sell and net more with the current exchange rate. In Florida this represents a major impact on the Real Estate industry since Canadian have accounted t for seven out of ten international home buyers in recent years.
