The US government just published a list of places where foreigners cannot buy land

The Treasury Department has formally defined what counts as a "military installation" and published a list of these sites. This means foreign individuals and companies now have clear boundaries for where they cannot purchase real estate in the United States.

For years, the rules about foreign ownership of land near military sites were vague, creating uncertainty for both buyers and sellers. This new list removes that ambiguity, making it easier to enforce restrictions and for foreign investors to understand where they can and cannot buy property. It effectively draws a clear line around sensitive areas, which could shift investment patterns away from these zones.
