None. Strong US Dollar will destroy emerging markets first, including South America. In five years real estate prices will be cut in half from now. That is for every single country that you listed above.

Good Luck and God Bless our Strong US Dollar!!!

Very few people on CD would have a clue about the ins and outs of real estate markets in South America.

Stronger US Dollar = lower real estate prices, not just in Buenos Aires, but here in America as well. Why do you think the FED has been killing the dollar with QE and ZIRP since 2008?

If rates are rising, then real estate prices need to come down. Americans can't afford to buy a house now when interest rates are still low, how can they buy in the future when rates go up unless prices come down?
Good Luck

Let's rephrase the question. Which of these cities will see the greatest improvement in terms of its safety, QOL, knowledge economy and food scene?
