Texas International Homebuyers Buck National Trend in 2026

International buyers spent $4.8 billion on 7,780 Texas homes, a 4% increase despite a national decline in foreign purchases. Texas's median price for these buyers was $375,000, below the national median. Mexico led buyers at 35%, followed by India and China. Nearly 60% bought suburban homes, with 38% paying cash. New laws restrict buyers from certain countries, yet Texas remains a top U.S. destination for international homebuyers.
