Home prices in (many) metro areas are riding steadily. Edit: some cities where the primary industry for the area is declining, this trend is going the other way

I am sure there are better sources than this, but I am going by what I was told by the bank when I opened an account here in Japan.

The exemption only applies to earned income, meaning you cannot apply any of that $125k to stuff like investment returns, dividends, royalties, or rents collected.

There is a system whereby foreign banks are obligated to report accounts held by Americans to the US for “anti terrorism” purposes.

And as a us citizen you are also obligated to report all of your foreign accounts in a FBAR filing each year.
