*note: I figure this is one of these questions where the entire f***ing board will have to reply "No" before the OP decides that we may be right.

If it were that easy, everybody and his wife could buy a double-wide on an acre 20 miles outta Hicksville to secure residency. Don't be daft.

I heard something about getting residency if you owned a minimum of 3 properties in Florida, you had to open a real estate rental company etc etc

For reliable advice, consult a competent immigration attorney.

No, owning property in the US does NOT help with immigration.
