What Homebuyers From India Look for When Shopping in the U.S.

For real estate brokers Nicole Grandelli and Jason Lanyard of Stribling in Manhattan, however, the increasing prevalence of the Indian buyer is not news.

The business duo has been forging a relationship with this group since the late 2000s when a client of Lanyard referred to him an Indian buyer who later recommended him to several of his friends looking to purchase property in New York.

Since then, Lanyard and Grandelli have made several trips to Mumbai and New Delhi in order to meet with more potential clients and industry players, including real estate agents, wealth managers and attorneys. Today, Indians make up a third of their clientele, according to Lanyard.
